PowerShell_ISE Scripting: ConvertTo-Comment

PowerShell Team December 31, 2008 Dec 31, 2008 12/31/08

Let me combine a couple of things. 1) When I posted my PowerShell_ISE profile, I included a function Goto-Line that is now builtin to the ISE so I reposted the blog with this function commented out. I commented it out instead of deleting it because I wanted to provide an example of how to do it. 2) Vivek Sharma left a comment asked ...

I was just reading a blog post where they were showing al the SCVVM commands in a list. I was going to refer them to my blog which shows how the display that list of commands in a really nice format.

PowerShell Team December 30, 2008 Dec 30, 2008 12/30/08

I messed up. First let me remind you that what you have are CTP bits and that CTP bits are subject to change. It turns out that we are tweaking the PowerShell_ISE object model and that the profile I posted does not work with CTP3. I’m sorry for that screw up. You can use the amazing PowerShell_ISE to fix this problem. All...

PowerShell Team December 24, 2008 Dec 24, 2008 12/24/08

I started using Twitter and saw a request from Thomas Lee for help about pipelining in CTP3. The thing about Twitter is that the messages have to be tiny so I wasn’t sure I could answer using it. It turns out I can solve this problem AND give a usage example in 73 characters. Here goes: PS> function t{param([Parameter(...

If you're like me, you've got a browser favorites folder that is full of wonderful PowerShell code snippets. Ideally, it would be great to have a way to bring those favorite snippets into PowerShell so that my favorites folder becomes a code library. Doing this presents several challenges. The first (and easiest to solve) is getting the web ...
