Vista - Command Line Arguments

Hi, how are the command line arguments passed to a PS1 script?

I see the Primer and the Getting Started guides. Where can I find the
reference manual?

How do I have additional fonts for the shell? The Lucida font displays some
Unicode characters like Greek but not Asian characters. The raster font is
only ASCII.

Thanks in advance

Argments are assigned to those parameters defined using a PARAM statuement
and the remaining parameters are defined to $ARGS

Speaking of which, I love the Consolas font and I use it in Visual Studio
and in the console. The only bummer with Consolas is that it doesn't sport
any of the line drawing glyphs that Lucida Console or Courier New has. Does
anybody know if there is an easy way to create a font by taking the line
drawing characters from Lucida Console and slapping them in at the same spot
in the Consolas font. I'd probably call this new font "Consolas Console".

Sorry, this is too cryptic for me. I trialed and errored, and it appears
that command line paramenters to a PS1 script are passed via an array $args,
each "string" in one element. I am just playing with positional parameters
at this time. Haven't gotten around to keyed parameters yet.

Thank you very much.

Unfortunately that is for the various versions of Windows 2000 only. I am on
XP.
