Latest Scripts from PoshCode.org

Reflection
Helpers for working with .Net classes: Get-Constructor, Get-Assembly, Add-Assembly, Get-Type

WpfBindingHelper
I can't get this to work from PowerShell, but it works fine from C#? * *C#* @PoshWpf.XamlHelper.ConvertToXaml( System.Windows.Markup.XamlReader.Parse( "<StackPanel xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation'> <TextBlock Text='{Binding FullName}' /> </StackPanel>" ));@ * *PowerShell* @[PoshWpf.XamlHelper]::ConvertToXaml( [System.Windows.Markup.XamlReader]::Parse( "<StackPanel xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation'> <TextBlock Text='{Binding FullName}' /> </StackPanel>" ));@ Both of them give back XAML, but in PowerShell ... I'm missing the {Binding FullName} bit.

Out-Posh
A little wrapper script/function to put pipeline output into New-BootsWindow

Replace-InTextFile
A script to do replace strings in text files. Yes, this is just a wrapper around @(gc) -replace | sc@

Export-WLANSettings.ps1
Using netsh.exe to loop through each WLAN on the system and export the settings to the user-provided output-file.

Format-PoshTable
Format-PoshTable puts the output in a WPF DataGrid (inline in PoshConsole, popup otherwise)

Get-FeedInfo
Takes an array of RSS feed URLs and gets the site URL and title..

Email attachments
All descriptions on the web which show how to do this so far have left the email attachment open which means if the script is continuing after the email and you wish to use the file you have attached you will not be able to as it will show as locked, use this example to close the attached file correctly using .Dispose()

Set-WinSchedule
Set-WinSchedule gives a GUI to select a schedule and schedules a task using schtasks. This is a beta. There are still a lot of features to implement. Please read through the synopsis->Description to see the list of features that I hope to get in a final release.

Get-FtpList
A function to get a file listing via FTP and parse it into objects. The default "FtpWebResponse"http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.ftpwebresponse.aspx listing comes back in HTML(Hypertext Markup Language) format from my FTP(File Transfer Protocol) server, and this function parses it into objects. However, the string parsing here may not work on the output of your FTP server (if so, please contribute by adding another set of parsing).
  
 

March 4th, 2010,

Sapien just released iPowerShell V2, which is now available in the Apple app store.  What is iPowerShell?

From Ferdinand Rios -

 iPowerShell is an easy to use reference tool for users of Microsoft’s PowerShell scripting language for use on the iPhone or iPod Touch. It contains full descriptions of each and every core PowerShell Version 2 cmdlet, their syntax, parameters and examples of proper usage. It also contains the complete set of “about item” help topics as well as provider and alias help.

Check out the Sapien blog for additional information.

If you have a third party PowerShell module or snapin with help, please contact Sapien (info@sapien.com) so they can integrate those help files with their next release.
