Hi all,
I’m noobie for hackthebox so please be gentle 
I’m currently working on the start tutorial and got some syntax error on the shell.ps1:
client : The term ‘client’ is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.
Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

The script looks the same as the tutorial (expect the host ip of course), how can I validate the script syntax prior running it?
Thanks in advance.
