The FP term is so overused :) If you know unix shell programming, you know FP - well ... conceptually anyways :) I'm just trying to find collections of neat stuff, such as creating simple UI menus in a script.
Jeroen Wiert Pluimers - I was thinking in the context of separate processes and immutability.
The power of PS is mindblowing, and I have seen some nifty UIs that were created with it - sort of like menu driven maintenance scripts which let the less computer literate operators safely do certain tasks.
First read yourself into functional programming. That helps a lot.

Lars Fosdal compared what you can do in PowerShell, unix shell programming is hardly functional. Scripts aren't meant for UIs.
