I have installed Ubuntu using netinstall to have more control as to what gets installed in the system. I have selected Lubuntu minimal installation in Software Selection (tasksel). It is pretty clean I should say. Here are some of the tools that I install to make it more useful for my needs: Customize Look and Feel (lxappearance) - LXDE GTK+ theme switcher Chromium Browser (chromium-browser) - open source version of Google's Chrome browser Image Viewer (gpicview) - lightweight image viewer Leafpad (leafpad) - a text editor, it is a GTK+ based simple editor LXTerminal (lxterminal) - LXDE terminal emulator Midnight Commander (mc) - a powerful file manager

Short command below returns exit code of 1. powershell -Command exit 1

To sequence one command after another one can use & to do it. For example: set test=hello & call echo %test% set test="hello" sets the value and call echo %test% shows the result to the standard output. Note also the use of call instruction, that forces the interpreter to re-interpret echo otherwise it will not see changes made.
