.\adb.exe shell am broadcast -a clipper.get | foreach {[regex]::match($_,'(?<=data=").*(?="$)').value}     (Any line that does not match the regex will exist as an empty line in the output)


$String = .\adb.exe shell am broadcast -a clipper.get
[regex]::matches($String, '(?<=data=").*(?="$)').Value         (The slightly longer version does not have the issue of the shorter version)


in powershell match returns an array of matched results 
foreach is needed to iterate over the array

foreach {[regex]::match($_,'(?<=FullName=).*?(?=})').value}

replace only returns the the replaced string. note that regex is supported


cat file.txt | % {$_ -replace "find", "replace"}

you can pipe the replace method into another replace method just like you can pipe sed into another sed

| % {$_ -replace "C:\\", "file:///C:/"} | % {$_ -replace "\\", "/"}

When using Back Referencing with powershell regex you need to escape the dollar sign ($) by adding backtick(`) before it
