Description
Learn how you can elevate your PowerShell experience with an innovative module called "POSH," which makes PowerShell more fun to work with through the use of color.
Meeting Description:
POSH is a new module built by James Brundage. It brings smart color formatting to areas of your PowerShell console in ways that you haven't seen before.
Commands like Get-Member and Get-Command present data differently when the important aspects are thoughtfully highlighted with color. Imagine how much easier XML is to read with subtle color enhancements. James has incorporated color into the console in ways that totally make sense and help with readability. Join us to see how this module can make your console prettier and easier to read.

A
Good
evening,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
welcome
to
another
meeting
of
the
Research
Triangle
Powershell
User
Group.
My
name
is
Mike
nakis
and
tonight
we
are
going
to
be
talking
about
a
new
module
called
Posh
from
a
gentleman
named
James
Brundage,
who
will
introduce
in
one
second,
but
before
we
do
that.
My
co-host
for
the
evening
is
Mr
Steve
and
Judd
Hey
Stephen.
How
are
you
oh.
A
C
A
C
I
mean
I'm
only
sometimes
metaphorically,
a
dog
and
I'm
gonna
have
to
give
a
light
plug
here.
I'm
using
obs's
virtual
camera.
Obs
is
a
great
little
streaming.
Software
and
I
built
this
module
called
OBS
Powershell
for
it
to
you
know,
do
fun
cool
stuff,
so
you
might
see
a
meme
or
two.
If
I
can
you
know
stream
effectively
today,
I'm
not
sure
the.
B
B
C
A
And
so
this,
what
you
just
talked
about
James
is
maybe
the
perfect
segue
for
us
to
get
to
you,
because
James
has
spoken
for
our
group
in
the
past.
He's
spoken
in
many
different
community
events.
One
thing
that
holds
true
with
James
is
James,
is
very
enamored
by
Powershell,
creates
lots
of
interesting
tools
and
loves
to
share
what
he
does
with
others,
and
so
the
idea
that
you
built
your
own
OBS
module
does
not
surprise
me
yeah.
A
A
Go
ahead,
I
was
just
gonna,
say:
there's
a
lot
of
people
that
watch
our
meetings
on
YouTube
and
don't
have
a
context
for
the
community
and
may
not
know
exactly
who
you
are
what
you
do.
So
why
don't
you
give
us
a
little
idea
of
you
know
who
you
are
and
like
what
your
day.
Job
is
because
I
think
a
lot
of
people
would
be
interested
to
know
that
well.
C
Let's
see
if
PowerPoint
is
my
friend
and
how
this
all
looks
yeah,
you
know
the
first
slide.
I
got
for
you
very,
very
easy
presentation.
I'm
working
on
is
who
who
the
hell
am
I
I'm
James
from
start
automating,
I'm,
x,
Microsoft,
ex-powershell,
team
member
and
a
Powershell
consultant
trainer,
that
is
to
say,
if
you
need
a
Powershell
project,
done
call
me
please,
and
if
you
want
some
Powershell
training,
we
can
also
set
that
up.
C
In
fact,
just
because
the
easy
thing
to
do,
you
can
go
ahead
and
sponsor
on
GitHub
and
actually
get
a
Powershell
training
session
set
up
or
get
recurrent
sessions
one-on-one
on
one
on
money,
on
whatever
topic
you
choose
at
whatever
time
so
think
of
it
as
user
groups
on
demand,
here's
some
social
media
contacts
on
on
various
ones
to
various
levels,
but
not
that
much
on
any
of
them,
I'm
at
jamesbrew,
on
Twitter
or
X
or
whatever.
It's
now
called
also
what
a
dumb
marketing
move.
C
Don't
understand
anyway,
not
my
problem,
not
my
pay
grade
I'm
at
Mr
Powershell
on
Mastodon,
various
mastodons
twitch
and
Tick
Tock,
although
I
haven't
started
really
tick-tocking
in
Earnest,
yet
I've
been
programming
in
Powershell
since
2006
I
joined
the
team,
the
month
Powershell
V1
came
out
and
was
pretty
involved
in
B1
and
B2
and
B3,
and
ever
since
then
I've
been
basically
helping
people
with
their
Powershell,
and
you
know:
Finding
joy
in
life
by
building
lots
of
community
tools
and
toys
and
today
we're
going
to
talk
about
a
fun
one.
So.
A
Hold
on
so
hold
on,
you
hold
on
you
just
unpacked
a
whole
bunch
there
and
I.
Don't
want
to
spend
a
bunch
of
time
talking
about
this,
but
I
do
want
to
give
some
people
some
context
and
then
I
want
to
get
out
of
the
way
and
let
you
do
things
but
so
start
automating
is
your
own
business?
Correct!
That's
correct!
Yes,
and
so
you
are
a
full-time
Powershell
developer,
not
for
a
single
company
like
employed
as
a
W-2
employee.
You
do
custom
code
like
for
projects
and
Contracting
for
various
companies
that.
C
Is
the
preference
I
also
am
bookable
on
W2,
just
it's
often
kind
of
under
that
Banner
anyway,
I,
don't
you
know
Pro
tip
for
everybody
here.
If
you
have
a
consulting
firm,
then
you
never
have
a
gap
in
your
resume,
because
when
you're
not
working
for
somebody
else,
you're
working
for
yourself,
yes,
so
yeah
I
have
worked
for
a
pretty
astounding
large
variety
of
companies.
C
At
this
point,
I
stopped
counting
some
time
ago,
I
think
in
terms
of
some
guesstimates
that
I've
worked
for
about
10
of
the
Fortune
100
over
the
years,
but
I
also
love
just
kind
of
getting
on
calls
and
helping
out
people
with
their
random
Powershell
questions
and
stuff.
In
fact,
that's
where
I'm
trying
to
find
both
more
joy
and
more
stable
income
throughout
life.
A
And
and
so
to
just
the
bring
this
together,
the
reason
I
brought
this
up
is
because
you
have
what
I
think
I
have
heard
in
my
career,
probably
eight
or
ten
times
from
fellow
co-workers.
What
many
would
consider
a
dream:
job,
full-time
Powershell,
developer
working
for
himself,
and
so
at
some
point,
if
you
have
the
opportunity,
maybe
towards
the
end
of
the
talk
or
the
middle
whatever.
If
you
can
talk
about
how
that
Journey
occurred,
I
think
that
would
be
interesting
to
a
lot
of
people.
I.
C
C
So
in
years,
that
I've
done
well.
I
probably
made
more
than
most
people
on
this
call
and
years
that
I've
done
poorly
I
might
have
made
less
than
your
Paperboy.
So
it
is
not
all
sunshine
and
Roses,
but
also
do
they
even
still
have
paper
boys,
but
it
has
been
really
really
fun
and
when
it's
good,
it's
been
very
good.
C
It's
just
also,
sometimes
a
little
bit
of
a
Stars
need
to
align
in
order
to
get
the
really
cool
and
interesting
Powershell
project
that
is
really
desperately
needed
now
and
there's
less
very
lucrative
versus
you
know
the
the
company
that
doesn't
really
need
that
much
but
means
it.
You
know
over
the
next
few
months
and
didn't
expect
somebody
that
could
do
it
in
a
month
and
since
by
so
you
know,
there's
a
little
bit
of
diminishing
returns
on
on
extraordinary
expertise.
That
also
stated
for
everybody
else.
C
This
is
very
much
a
unique
problem.
There
are
so
many
line
jobs
in
Powershell
now,
and
it
makes
me
such
a
proud
papa
of
the
language
that
I
can't
even
begin
to
express
I
was
talking
to
Bruce
Payette
a
couple
weeks
ago
and
was
like
hey
man.
This
thing
that
we
built
created
a
half
million
jobs,
that's
crazy
right,
we're
on
a
whole
user
group,
conversation
full
of
people
that
make
a
living
off
of
Powershell
like
you
might
think.
C
It's
the
dream
job,
but
you've
got
the
easy
version
of
it
where
you
don't
have
to,
like.
You
know,
Chase
everybody's
dreams,
but
you
can
find
all
that
joy
and
Powershell
and
a
nice
steady
living
and
that's
something
that
didn't
exist
for
tons
of
people
15
20
years
ago,
and
a
lot
of
the
people
in
Powershell
came
up
from
you,
know:
non-technical
backgrounds
or
non-expert
spaces
and
got
massive
improvements
in
their
life.
So
it's
been
really
really
really
rewarding
and
I'm
not
going
to.
You
know,
stop
enjoying
that
sort
of
reward.
B
For
some
of
us
you
know
we
feel
like
we're
doing
we're
getting
to
explore
the
benefits
of
the
work
that
all
the
people
did
before
us,
and
sometimes
it
feels
like
we're
standing
on
the
shoulders
of
giants,
and
so
we,
you
know,
we're
all
very
grateful
for
the
amount
of
time
that
that
you
and
Bruce
and
the
entire
team
put
in-
and
you
know
not
to
Discount,
what's
still
going
on,
because
the
team
is
still
rolling.
You
know.
Steve
is
very
involved
steeply.
B
C
Thank
you
and
I
again,
that's
part
of
the
Great
reward.
I,
don't
know
I'm,
not
gonna,
you
know
call
myself
any
form
of
giant,
but
if
you're,
building,
Frameworks
and
you're
building
capability
for
others
to
use
the
most
rewarding
thing
that
can
possibly
happen
to,
you
is
seeing
that
utility
and
I
went
from
basically
fighting
a
very
Fierce
internal
battle
within
Microsoft
hey,
this
is
Powershell.
This
is
gonna,
be
cool.
C
You
guys
need
to
pay
attention
and
you
know
doing
some
of
the
same
thing
externally
by
you
know
showing
off
hey
here's
these
cool
things
Powershell
can
do
and
basically
feeling
like
it
was.
You
know,
a
small
team
kind
of
against
the
the
world
to
I
can
walk
into
a
Data
Center
and
see
row
after
row
after
row
of
computers
running
Powershell
Powershell
is
you
know
not
just
a
lot
of
people's
jobs?
It's
a
whole
sector
of
the
industry
and
yep.
C
Every
additional
thing
that
I
build
that
you
guys
get
to
use
just
makes
my
heart.
You
know
swell
with
joy
and
pride,
not
necessarily
at
myself
but
like
what
you
guys
can
do.
The
the
really
rewarding
ethos
of
Powershell
has
been
making
things
easier
and
you
know
making
it
so
that
you
don't
have
to
be
any
form
of
giant
to
do
gigantic
things
to
move
mountains
and
anything
that
I
can
do
to
continue
to
make
that
happen
makes
me
a
happy.
You
know
camper,
so.
C
A
A
If
you
haven't
yeah
James
has
quite
a
wide
array
of
tools
that
he's
built
with
Powershell
to
do
things
that
you
might
not
even
think
about
doing
a
Powershell,
and
so
the
dream,
job
of
being
a
Powershell
developer,
I
feel
like
James,
is
really
representative
of
someone
who
kind
of
lives.
The
life
I
keep
seeing
stuff
that
you
build,
and
it's
for
things
that
I
would
have
never
have
considered
to
try
to
address
with
Powershell.
A
A
You
know
data
from
here
to
there
for
some
corporate
thing,
but
like
how
do
you
control
your
lights
at
home
and
how
do
you
control
OBS,
and
how
do
you
colorize
your
code,
and
how
do
you
do
all
these
things
and,
oh
by
the
way,
I
built
my
own
set
of
utilities
to
write
all
my
code
faster,
there's,
a
lot
to
unpack
with
James
and
so
I
guess
what
I
wanted
to
ask?
You
is
what
is
what
brought
you
to
the
Posh
module?
A
B
C
C
Right
so
we
covered
the
who
today
we're
talking
about
this
new
toy
posh
and
Posh.
Is
this
new
Powershell
module
makes
the
shell
a
little
bit
more
Sleek
it
enhances.
Formatting,
makes
the
shell
easier
to
customize.
It
hopefully
will
help
you
learn
Powershell
and
when
and
where
we'll
get
in
the
Y
and
a
half.
Second,
that's
the
one
you
asked
it
just
dropped
to
Tech
member
2023,
which
was
a
great
conference
and
a
lot
of
fun.
That
was
a
couple
weeks
ago.
C
I
had
done
a
talk
entitled
fantastic
formatting
with
the
easy
out
easy
out
is
actually
the
oldest
Powershell
module.
It
is
used
to
write,
formatting
and
types
which
are
part
of
Powershell.
That's
been
there
since
the
beginning
and
our
basically
there
to
help
you
format
how
objects
are
displayed
and
extend
existing
types,
they're
also,
unfortunately,
horrible
XML
and
nobody
likes
them.
Hence
easy
out
and
I
perpetually
get
asked
to
talk
about
easy
out,
and
people
had
kind
of
complained
a
little
bit
about
easy
out
containing
formatters
I.
Guess
we're
kind
of
bleeding
into
why?
C
So?
Where
can
you
get
it
it's
available
on
the
Powershell
Gallery?
You
can
also
get
it
on
GitHub
and
here's
where
we
get
to
the
stupidly
Brave
part
of
the
conversation
here.
I
actually
have
a
new
versions,
pull
request,
queued
up
and
I
love
the
smell
of
cicd
in
the
early
evening.
So
I'm
just
going
to
go
ahead
and
merge
that
now
and
delete
my
branch
and
go
to
watch
my
actions
run.
This
is
built
with
another
module
called
PS
devops,
and
this
lets
me
basically
get
this
outdoor.
C
C
You
know:
there's
lots
of
fun
here,
I'm,
just
kind
of
a
little
annoyed
that
it
took
a
little
bit
longer
than
I'd
like
to
publish,
but
to
be
fair,
it's
actually
been
running
the
other
parts
of
the
action
for
a
second.
So
okay,
we
got
release
0.12
I'm
gonna
actually
drop
that
second
waveform
entirely.
Sorry.
C
Hopefully
the
other
stuff
will
be
cool
enough.
Okay,
all
right
and
we
should
be
able
to
go
to
Powershell
gallery
now
on
the
bright
side.
I
am
pleased
as
Peach
that
I
was
actually
able
to
get
the
module
name
Posh
on
the
bad
side.
There
are
a
lot
of
other
modules
that
have
some
variation
of
Posh.
So
it's
on
the
second
page
here
now
and
yep
we
have
a
new
set
of
bits
out.
So
go
get
the
ones
fresh
off
the
press.
C
Okay,
so
you
can
get
it
on
GitHub,
github.com,
start
automating,
slash,
Posh,
please
start
and
show
your
support.
I
am
actually
legitimately
trying
to
make
GitHub
sponsorship
in
something
of
a
business
model.
So
you
know,
if
you
like
modules,
please
star
them
and
consider
you
know
giving
sponsorship.
C
So
why
build
this
I?
Make
little
sayings
to
remember
things,
and
one
of
them
is
never
do
anything
for
just
one
reason.
So
here's
my
quick
short
set
of
reasoning
to
make
Posh
one
I
needed
some
fantastic
formatting
like
at
its
core.
This
is
started
off
as
not
exactly
demoware
I
wanted
to
show
something
that
would
be
well.
Various
leak,
formatting
and
I
had
a
presentation
coming
up
number
two
people
really
like
colors
and
spicy
shells
like
this
is
just
you
know,
proven
by
downloads.
I
think
like.
C
C
So
you
know
maybe
it'll
be
popular.
Number
three
is
that
people
did
not
like
easy
out,
including
too
much
formatting.
A
bunch
of
the
formatting
that
is
in
Posh
had
been
an
easy
out
for
a
very
long
time,
as
kind
of
an
example,
and
this
actually
got
a
pretty
negative
reaction,
because
easy
out
was
primarily
is
primarily
about
creating
these
types
and
format,
files
for
you
and
it
disrupted
what
they
expected
in
terms
of
shell
experience,
so
people
had
basically
said
hey.
C
You
should
put
all
that
into
a
separate
module
for
a
while
and
I
finally
got
around
to
it.
The
other
one
is
a
little
bit
tsunami.
You
talked
about,
you
know
not
being
too
business
focused,
but
modules
are
Brands,
and
this
helps
make
modules
more
marketable,
including
itself.
That
is,
it
helps
you
see,
screenshots
and
videos
and
demos,
and
all
the
other
things
that
help
make
a
module
really
pop
and
the
other
bit
is
that
gateways
are
good.
This
provides
like
a
nice
little.
C
You
know
siren
Call
into
order
to
show
people
all
sorts
of
other
fun
stuff.
They
can
do
in
Powershell
that
they
might
not
have
expected
and
also
creating
something
cool
is
always
good
for
business.
Same
general
principle,
I,
don't
mean
to
be
again
too
schmarmy
or
businessy.
But
oh
look
at
me:
I'm
doing
cool
Power
shell
stuff.
Please
hire
me.
You
know
that
that
is
at
least
part
of
the
name
of
the
game
to
the
dream
job
job.
You
talked
about.
It's
continually,
building
out
stuff
that
says:
look
this
is
cool
Powershell.
C
A
Well,
so
you
built
this
because
it
was
fun
and
cool.
You
had
it
in
need
right,
and
so
what's
the
general
sense
of
what
people
are
going
to
see
with
this
module
tonight
like
just
this
is
a
this
is
a
mod
like
for
people
who
don't
know
and
maybe
just
stumbled
into
this.
This
is
a
formatting
module
to
colorize
your
console
in
more
than
a
few
ways
right,
yeah.
A
And
so
the,
how
is
how
you
built
it?
How
is
how
I
built
it
yeah?
We
would
love
to
see
that,
but
so
my
suggestion
would
be,
let
people
see
your
colorizing
and
then
I
would
say.
Let's
talk
about
the
how,
after
you
do
that
just
so,
we
don't
get
too
far
down
the
rabbit,
hole
and
people
don't
understand
what
the
heck
you're
talking
about,
but
that's
just
all.
C
C
Which
we'll
be
using
in
a
second
I
promise?
So
right
now
we
have
our
normal
Powershell
directory
output
or
file
output.
In
this
case,
these
are
the
files
and
Posh
Posh
is
not
yet
installed
or
imported,
and
we're
just
going
to
go
ahead
and
import
module,
Posh
or
dot
slash,
because
this
is
the
way
I
love
to
import
local
modules.
A
Let
me
just
stop
you
and
so,
for
if
someone
is
sort
of
a
little
newer
to
Powershell
what
they're
seeing
on
the
screen
right
now
is
just
simple:
Powershell,
seven
formatting,
just
the
basics
that
comes
out
of
the
box,
I
don't
want
people
to
think
that
the
assets
build
demos
is
part
of
the
stuff
that
you
did
you're
basically
saying
it's
going
to
get
we're
going
to
go
bigger
from
here.
This
is
what
you
get
by
default,
with
Powershell.
C
Basically
it
says:
hey
I'm,
not
just
any
module,
I'm
Posh
and
then
I
write
a
formatter
for
that,
and
therefore
you
see
this
instead
of
the
normal
module
output.
Now,
when
I
still
do
get
module,
I
still
see
basically
the
normal
output.
But
let's
go
back
to
a
file
view.
Now
we
got
these
icons.
We
still
have
our
colorization.
We've
got
our
length
in
kilobytes
or
megabytes
four
gigabytes
for
that
matter.
A
C
C
So
it's
like
okay,
thank
you
for
that
useless
information
in
exchange
for
the
useful
information
that
I
really
needed.
So
one
of
the
things
that
I'm
trying
to
do
here
is
basically
take
things
that
kind
of
suck
in
Powershell
formatting
and
make
them
better.
There
is
also
the
module
terminal,
icons
and
I'm
not
going
to
demonstrate
this,
because
it
gets
a
little
bit
funky,
but
you
can
use
terminal
icons
in
lieu
of
this
and
still
get
basically
their.
You
know,
presentation
the
thing
with
terminal
icons.
C
That
kind
of
sucks
is
that
you
have
to
have
nerd
fonts
installed
and
nerd.
Ponts
is
a
really
large
package
of
well
fonts
for
nerds.
If
it's
that
important
to
you
to
have
an
extra
special
Powershell
icon
go
ahead,
but
I
personally
think
this
one
looks
quite
fine
and
there
are
a
lot
of
emoji
that
work
on
any
given.
You
know
font
that
you'd
like
so
at
this
point,
I'm
I'm,
pretty
happy
with
just
trying
to
find
appropriate
emoji.
A
C
C
B
B
C
Sure,
let's
bring
over
the
project
we're
into
the
house,
let's
go
into
the
how
all
right
so,
which
one
did
you
want
to
see
the
file
system?
Okay,
so
we
actually
have
a
two
views
of
files.
One
of
them
supports
the
icons
at
this
point
and
the
other
one
does
not
mainly
because
I
haven't
made
the
icons
as
customizable
as
I
would
like
Okay.
So,
let's
start
with
the
easy
part,
instead
of
writing
well
here,
let
me
test
my
luck
with
F5.
C
That's
the
large
XML,
that's
required
to
make
this
work.
This
is
what
this
file
does.
It
produces
that
XML
for
me,
right
format
view
that's
easy
out.
Okay,
so
we're
saying
we're
writing
a
format
view
or
the
type
name
file
system
types.
This
takes
a
bit
of
annoying
explaining
and
file
system
types
is
basically
the
only
one,
but
you
can
either
say
that
your
decorate
or
you're
displaying
a
type
name
or
one
or
more
type
names
or
what's
called
a
selection
set,
which
is
basically
a
group
of
type
names
with
a
name.
C
So
you
can
also
include
the
XML
directly
if
you
feel
like
that
masochistic
or
you
just
want
to
get
around
what
it
can
do.
Naturally-
and
this
is
what
a
selection
set
is
so
file
system
types,
would
format
directory
info
and
file
info.
Okay,
then
I'm,
saying
I
want
three
properties
last
right
time,
length
and
name
everybody
with
me
so
far,.
C
C
C
A
bear-
and
you
know
I-
do
set
up
the
dad
jokes
every
once
in
a
while.
The
next
part
I
was
a
little
tedious,
as
you
can
kind
of
see,
but
basically
it's
like
hey.
Do
you
have
a
length?
Okay,
are
you
bigger
than
a
gigabyte
cool
display
is
Big
gigabytes?
Are
you
bigger
than
a
megabyte
cool
display
use
megabytes?
Are
you
bigger
than
kilobyte
cool
displays
kilobytes
if
you're
not
a
directory
info,
otherwise
display
how
what
your
length
is.
C
So
if
you're
less
than
a
kilobyte
it'll,
just
be
a
number,
if
you're
more
than
a
kilobyte
it'll,
be
you
know,
number
rounded
to
the
number
of
kilobytes
or
with
two
decimal
places
and
so
on
and
so
forth.
Okay,
so
a
lot
of
little
Annoying
code,
but
not
really
that
frustrating
and
virtual
properties
are
basically
just
the
the
term
and
easy
out
for
what
you're
doing
in
formatting,
which
is
you're
basically
saying
I'm,
going
to
display
this
property
and
it's
going
to
have
a
script
block
as
its
value.
C
Instead,
okay-
and
it
took
me
a
while
to
realize
it,
but
you
can
drive
a
big
truck
through
that
hole
like
you
can
basically
add
colorization
and
formatting
there
too.
So
that
was
our
length.
Okay,
then,
for
our
name.
We
do
a
couple
things.
First
thing
we
do.
Is
we
figure
out?
Is
there
format
terminal
icons?
C
This
is
where
that
particular
magic
works,
and
this
is
a
little
bit
more
complicated
than
many,
but
basically
I'm
letting
it
fall
back
explicitly
on
this.
If
you
have
it
so,
if
I
found
this
great
I'm
going
to
use
that
actually
now
that
I'm,
seeing
this
I
understand
why
it
requires
me
to
unload
Posh
before
it
stops
or
starts
working
again
anyway.
C
Next
thing
is
a
little
bit
more
hard-coded
than
I
would
like
at
this
point,
but
basically,
if
you're
a
directory,
I'm
gonna
go
use
this
thing
in
PS
style
now,
PS
style
is
a
pretty
new
thing
in
Powershell
and
I'm
kind
of
mixed
on
it,
but
I
have
integrated
it
with
easy
out.
Nps
style
gives
you
all
these
different.
Basically
ways:
you
can
style
something
in
ANSI.
C
The
thing
that's
kind
of
nice
about
this
is
that
well,
it's
built
right
in
and
the
other
thing
that's
kind
of
nice
is
that
if
you're
using
this
form
of
style,
it
will
adapt
to
whatever
color
scheme
you
have
in
the
terminal
or
inside
of
vs
code.
Make
sense
yes
cool,
so
they
also
have
a
few
kind
of
special
options
here.
C
One
of
them
is
file
info
and
file
info,
basically
give
you
a
color
that
you
can
set
for
the
directory
or
for
an
executable
and
I
actually
add
a
little
bit
more
information
to
this
as
well.
But
you
then
have
this
extension
format
that
you
can
use.
That
basically
says
hey.
These
extensions
will
be
rendered
by
that
color
and
that's
what
this
code
does
here
is
checks.
A
do.
C
I
have
something
for
that
extension
great,
do
that,
and
this
is
something
that
I
added
just
basically,
because
you
can
add
member
to
PS
style,
so
I
added
a
dictionary
for
patterns
and
now
I
gotta
have
other
naming
based
or
colorization
based
off
of
the
pattern.
I'm
not
doing
this
yet.
But
the
reason
I
would
want
to
do
something
like
this.
Is
you
know?
Well,
PS1
XML
file,
isn't
just
any
XML
file
and
say
a
Docker
file
doesn't
have
an
extension,
but
I
might
want
to
colorize
it.
Does
this
make
sense.
C
Well,
we're
basically
at
the
graceful
break,
because
the
rest
of
the
code
after
this
is
basically
here
is
my
I'm
going
to
make
this
extensible.
You
know
part
of
the
app,
but
I
haven't
done
it
yet,
and
then
here
is
my
hard-coded.
If
you've
got
this
extension,
these
are
the
icons
we're
using
and
it's
just
a
big
switch
and
then
at
the
end
of
this
oh
yeah,
real
bonus
points
that
I
should
show
you
here.
C
C
So
this
is
just
if
pipe
PS
style
has
a
format
hyperlink
and
I'm,
not
in
a
GitHub
workflow,
where
it's
going
to
basically
just
show
this
as
a
blank
anyway,
then
I'm
going
to
use
format,
hyperlink
and
I'm
going
to
link
you
to
the
file,
and
this
will
work
in
vs
code
and
in
terminal
in
vs
code.
The
files
that
are
going
to
open
that
it
will
open
are
restricted
to
the
workspace.
C
C
B
C
Most
of
the
CI
CD
systems
that
you
have
like
Azure,
devops
or
GitHub
workflow.
They
set
a
bunch
of
environment
variables.
So
all
that
I'm
doing
here
is
I'm,
and
this
is
a
thing
you
can
do
in
formatting
as
I'm
checking
to
see
if
I'm
in
a
GitHub
workflow,
because
if
I
am
in
a
GitHub
workflow
that
environment
variable
will
exist.
C
C
I
would
be
a
little
I,
don't
know
surprised
if
it
works
in
other
ones,
if
it's
not
working
GitHub,
workflows
partially
because
of
the
way
they're
built,
I'm
also
kind
of
a
little
annoyed,
because
it
wouldn't
hurt
that
much
to
be
able
to
have
a
click
of
a
link
in
your
logs.
But
this
is
a
thing:
if
I
did
this
in
GitHub,
workflow
and
I
was
displaying
this.
You
know,
output
of
a
directory,
it
would
not
link
the
files
correctly
and
it
would
just
display
a
blank
there
and
that.
A
I'm
kind
of
glad
that
we
went
off
the
rails
a
little
bit
when
we
did
intros
because
it
sort
of
set
the
tone
for
what
we're
doing
here
and
and
that's
great.
But
we
went
from
the
beginning
of
the
your
demo,
which
was
fine
and
was
still
fine
and
somehow,
when
we
got
to
the
how
I
James
I
should
have
expected.
We
went
like
right
down
into
the
plumbing
and
300
level
stuff
and,
and
that
is
completely
fine.
One
of
the
reasons
I
love
having
James
you've.
A
Present,
no,
that's
fine.
The
one
of
the
reasons
I
like
having
James
present
is
because
you
get
to
see
how
someone
like
James,
thinks
and
works,
and
James
can
work
very
fast.
There's
a
bunch
of
stuff
that
you
brought
up
that
I
am
sure
audience.
Members
did
not
catch
so
I
want
to
go
back
a
little
bit,
but
before
I
do
that
I
wanna
help
out
people
at
home
that
may
be
confused.
You
went
into
the
plumbing
of
the
module.
A
C
A
C
A
Happened
to
talk
about
how
I
did
it,
so,
if
so,
if
you're
interested
in
this
module
and
you're
like
whoa
I
can't
do
the
stuff
you're
saying
you
wouldn't
be
doing
this,
you
he's
showing
you
don't
have
to
right.
Okay,
so
with
that
being
said,
for
the
people
that
were
following
along
and
watching
you,
what
some
people
may
not
understand,
James
and
I
know
this
from
talking
with
James
at
Summits
and
from
other
demos.
A
James
builds
a
lot
of
tools
and
James
has
figured
out
along
the
way
that
James
wants
to
build
tools
that
help
him
build
tools
as
fast
as
possible.
So
there
was
a
point
there
James,
where
you
showed
the
long
XML
file.
You
even
made
the
comment.
Oh,
this
is
the
long
XML
file
that
gets
produced.
Yep
James
has
his
own
tools
to
write
those
files
for
him
and
that
may
not
have
been
understood
by
people
that
right
format.
View
comes
from
another
module
that
James
owns
that
James
created
that
I
know
from
history.
A
James
uses
these
as
utility
modules
to
do
all
the
heavy
lifting
of
his
module
building
and
code
writing
so
that
he
doesn't
have
to
sit
there
and
write
thousands
of
lines
of
code.
He's
figured
out
ways
to
automate
as
much
of
his
workflow
as
possible,
and
so
I
mentioned
that,
because
when
you
talked
about
this
for
someone
trying
to
follow
along,
they
may
not
have
picked
up
on
those
little
like
where
the
hell
did
that
come
from
kind
of
stuff.
So
yeah
there's
a
lot
going
on
in
your
modules,
very
cool.
C
Well,
on
that
level,
let's,
let's
talk
a
little
bit
about
I
I,
I'm
I'm,
not
been
ever
a
big
user
or
something
like
plaster,
but
I
have
kind
of
been
coming
more
and
more
to
a
fairly
standardized
structure
of
how
I
lay
out
a
lot
of
my
modules.
So
you
got
an
assets
directory
and
that's
going
to
have
well
any
images
or
anything
that
goes
along
with
it.
Okay
got
a
build
directory
and
that's
going
to
have
any
files
that
are
used
to
help
build
the
module.
In
this
case
we
got
a
few.
C
We
got
our
easy
out
file
which
basically
goes
and
builds
our
types
and
formats.
We
got
our
GitHub
workflow
file,
which
builds
our
GitHub
workflow.
We
got
our
help
out
file
and
this
actually
basically
loads
Posh
and
gives
us
markdown
help
for
every
script
method.
In
it
we
got
a
little
pssvg
file
which
helps
build
us,
a
logo
and
this
one's
a
little
bit
of
a
light.
Cheat
Posh
doesn't
actually
include
any
commands
directly,
but
it
does
basically
have
this
functionality
of
a
module
called
splatter
kind
of
as
part
of
it.
C
So
these
five
files
basically
help
automatically
build
the
whole
thing.
Now
you
got
demos
directory
and
that's
you
know
showing
off
how
it
works.
Docs
directory
is
where
all
those
markdown
files
go,
and
also
it's
going
to
be
your
root
of
your
GitHub
page
formatting
directory.
That's
going
to
contain
your
formatting
okay
and
it's
generally
PS1
and
xmls
or
sorry
format.ps
ones,
but
it
can
be
format
or
format,
xmls
or
view.ps
ones
as
well.
C
So
you
got
different
formatting
directories
for
different
stuff
because
it
makes
it
easier
to
kind
of
see
so
I've
got
all
the
file
system
stuff,
grouped
I'm
gonna
get
to
this
one,
but
this
one's
empty
at
current
I'm
going
to
make
get
help
and
work
in
color,
two
I
promise,
but
I
am
not
there.
Yet
I've
got
all
these
formatters
for
Posh
itself.
I've
got
some
formatters
for
reflection.
C
I
got
some
formatters
for
some
regex
I
got
some
formatters
for
some
XML
and
I'm
going
to
just
show
a
demo
of
this
in
a
second,
because
that's
going
to
be
a
lot
easier
than
you
know,
walking
through
each
one,
but
the
structure
is
fairly
logical.
You
should
be
able
to
go
to
the
repo
and
explore
going
further
down.
You've
got
you
know
the
definition
of
its
GitHub
job,
which
is
basically
you
know,
run
this
check
out.
The
repository
go
use,
pssvg,
splatter,
pipe
script,
easy
out
and
log.
C
My
changes
to
this
thing,
I
build
called
git
logger,
which
gives
you
basically
insight
and
what
you're
checking
in
for
a
bucket
repo
a
month
and
underneath
here
you
got
I
haven't
finished
it
yet
the
kind
of
concept
of
presets,
so
we're
going
to
come
back
to
that.
Maybe
in
a
future
talk
and
then
you've
got
a
types
directory,
and
this
basically
has
all
of
the
extended
types
that
you
want
to
do
so
I've
got.
C
A
C
The
repo
it's
nice,
it
prevents
typos
and
gives
you
this
nice
little.
You
know
auto
typing
format
for
displaying
your
demos.
This
is
also
like
a
very
old
thing.
In
Powershell
made
new
again
show.
Demo
is
like
a
newer
version
of
a
thing
that
Jeffrey
Snover
wrote
a
long
time
ago
called
start
demo,
but.
B
C
A
C
Yep
you
can
so
the
only
thing
that
Posh
exports
is
itself
as
a
variable
dollar
posh
and
one
of
the
critiques
that
I
got
as
far
as
the
name
already
was
basically
hey.
If
you're
gonna
name
it,
you
know
Posh
and
you
gotta
be
able
to
do
more
General,
Powershell
stuff
than
formatting
and
so
I'm
trying
to
make
that
possible
too.
C
Hence
the
formatter
for
it
and
the
nice
way
you
can
pipe
it
to
get
member
and
see
what
else
it
can
do.
But
let's
take
a
quick
tour
of
how
it'll
make
the
Powershell
shell
cooler
I'm,
actually
going
to
start
recording
for
a
second,
because
I
want
this.
One
too
so
show
files
and
color
with
clickable
links.
This
is
step
one
and
we
can
get
module,
Posh
split
path
which
basically
gets
the
directory
of
the
modules
in
get
child
item
there
we
go
same
formatter,
you
already
saw
no
typing
required.
C
C
I
mean
we
just
added
to
the
point
where
we
can
have
colorized
files.
Why
shouldn't
I
be
able
to
colorize
commands?
Also
I,
don't
generally
need
to
see
the
module
version
of
the
command
every
time.
So
you
know
just
the
name
in
the
module
is
fine
and
I'm
going
to
colorize
the
name
based
off
the
verb,
ready.
B
C
So
you're,
covering
I,
also
do
some
metallicization
yep
and
basically
it's
the
same
sort
of
code,
as
you
saw
on
the
other
one,
at
least
right
now,
where
it's
got
a
little
switch
statement
and
doing
some
regex
for
what
verb
is.
What
color
and
I've
tried
to
make
sure
that
verbs
that
are
right
next
to
each
other
are
not
the
same.
Color
and
verbs
that
are
similar
are
similarly
cover
color
and
there
are
a
few
ones
that
are
so
generic
that
I
said.
E
C
C
C
Is
there's
a
guy
in
the
80s
by
the
last
name
of
Tullis,
who
figured
out
that
seek
time
is
related
to
basically
column
count
to
the
number
of
different.
It
takes
you
an
amount
of
time
to
read
something
based
off
of
the
number
of
different,
distinct
points
of
horizontal
alignment,
which
means
on
a
basic
practical
level,
even
though
I
can
Center
stuff
in
a
formatter
I
almost
never
do
because
centering
actually
forces
your
eye
to
receive
sync
all
the
time.
C
To
figure
out,
essentially
that
seek
time
you're
looking
for
basically
how
many
times
your
eye
needs
to
move,
to
get
to
the
the
exact
point.
So
if
I
wanted
to
figure
out,
you
know
what
type
can
I
get
from
two
string,
even
though
that's
a
really
obvious
one
I'm
looking
for
scanning
down
for
this,
then
this
then
this,
then
this.
So
a
tallest
rating
of
nine
very
fast.
A
So,
if
you're
not
interested
in
properties,
you
can
just
bypass
all
that
because
it's
all
looking
the
same
and
the
methods
stand
out
if
you're
not
interested
in
methods-
and
you
just
want
properties,
they
sort
of
stand
out
on
their
own.
So
that's
kind
of
you
know
really
smart
and
useful,
because
I
never
really
thought
about
it
until
I
saw
it
with
the
color
like
this
I
see
this
page
all
the
time
when
you
do
get
member
and
some
commands,
especially
like
string
stuff,
will
throw
up.
You
know.
A
C
Thank
you
and
yeah
that
that's
part
of
the
point
here
and
honestly,
as
I
was
saying
towards
the
beginning.
I
feel
like
this
is
something
Powershell
initially
had
a
good
lead-in
and
now
needs
to
kind
of
LeapFrog
and
so
I'm
kind
of
trying
to
basically
bring
all
of
the
Powershell
default
formatting
up
to
the
next
level,
and
you
know,
like
I
I,
don't
think
asking
you
to
install
one
module
to
get
all
this
is
that
much,
but
so.
C
A
A
A
C
Okay,
so
oh
there
we
go
sorry.
It
took
a
little
bit
of
focus
stealing
to
get
me
back
there
already
shown
on
the
output
for
git
command.
That's
also
easy
to
explore
reflection.
Now,
sometimes
you
know
what
type
something
is,
but
you
don't
have
an
actual
instance
of
it
and
I
basically
said
hey
I
want
that
to
be
in
color
too
so
I
can
pipe
any
type
to
format,
custom,
but
I'll
get
this.
C
This
is
the
short
form
believe
it
or
not,
a
summary
view
of
its
properties,
methods,
Etc,
okay,
so
this
is
all
the
stuff
and
it
can
do-
or
at
least
all
the
stuff
in
in
32
can
do
directly
and
I
can
actually
pipe
this
into
a
different
view.
Now
this
is
a
good
thing
to
highlight
here,
because
it's
not
really
well
known
about
Powershell,
but
not
only
can
you
format
an
object,
any
number
of
ways
you
could
have
any
number
of
views
for
an
object.
C
A
You
know
I
have
very
little
experience
with
format,
custom
and
so
I'm.
Guessing
a
lot
of
people
watching
do
as
well,
and
so
you
sent
this
to
format
custom.
What
would
format
custom
normally
do
because
I
don't
know
that
people
are
gonna
pick
up
what
you're
doing
if
they
don't
understand
what
format
custom
does
on
its
own.
C
That's
a
good
question:
okay,
so
there
are
four
built-in
format:
Dash
commands
in
Powershell,
okay
format,
table
format,
list
format,
wide
and
format,
custom,
the
format
table
and
format
list
you
might
have
run
into
before
they're.
You
know
Common
enough
and
they
give
you
somewhat
direct
control
over
how
a
particular
table
will
look
okay
format
wide
as
I
say
in
many
a
talk
is
basically
useless.
I
agree,
so
we're
just
gonna
forget
that
for
a
bit,
but
it
theoretically
is
supposed
to
be
like
a
wide
column
view.
C
It
just
only
can
render
one
thing
and
it
doesn't
render
it
well
and
anyway,
format.
Custom
is
exactly
what
it
sounds
like
it'll
format,
any
object
in
a
custom
way
now
by
default
format.
Custom
is
pretty
ugly.
The
default
custom
formatter,
essentially
two
strings
down
as
far
as
it
can
go,
so
it'll
basically
be
a
complete
output
of
the
object
in
a
way
that
is
almost
entirely
unusable.
C
It
is
fairly
likely,
within
a
couple
months,
I'll
figure
out
what
I
want
format
custom
to
be
by
default
for
every
object
instead,
but
if
you
format,
custom,
a
normal
object,
it'll
just
spit
out
all
that
sub
property
information
and
not
be
particularly
usable.
If
you
write
a
custom,
formatter,
then
format.
Custom
will
use
that
if
you
wrote
a
custom
formatter
and
you
put
it
above
a
table
in
file
formatter,
then
it's
going
to
use
the
custom
formatter
by
default
and
the
user
would
never
be
the
wiser.
C
A
C
A
C
A
C
Yeah,
which
is
it's
a
little
bit
annoying
because,
like
you
know,
you
could
make
the
default
a
yaml
formatter,
maybe
that
might
look
kind
of
nice
or
a
Tomo
formatter,
but
like
they're,
just
like
okay,
every
object
as
deep
as
we
can
go
and
then
there
are
other
things
that
are
already
kind
of
like
over
exposed
with
extra
information.
Like
oh
here's,
a
time
span
on
a
date
time.
You
didn't,
you
didn't
wanna
stop
when
you
realized.
It
was
a
date
time,
because
this
is
not
helpful.
C
C
Now
I
will
say
this
thing
gets
a
little
bit
sort
of
potential
backfire
territory.
When
your
XML
is
massive,
it
takes
a
while
I'm
going
to
try
to
figure
out
how
to
be
a
little
bit
smarter
about
that
and
not
render
massive
XML
in
color
but
yeah
colorized
XML.
Is
this
a
fantastic
formatting?
Is
this
posh?
Is
this
what
you
really
really
want?
Well,.
C
C
A
C
Unfortunately,
these
mistakes
are
checked
in
so
I'm
gonna
have
to
have
that.
You
know
like
it's
kind
of
all
of
our
nightmares
like
somebody's
gonna,
look
over
our
commit
log
and
see
that
we
fixed
typo,
oh
God,
that
again
but
yeah.
We
all
do
another
one
that
came
over
from
Easy
Out
is
get
process,
heat
map.
C
So,
just
like
your
normal
get
process
pretty
much
at
least,
but
it
gives
you
a
heat
map.
Color
scheme
around
you
know
of
the
working
sets
and
the
like
yay
the
last
easy,
dumb
ones
are
time
spans
and
time
zones,
and
we
actually
just
saw
basically
how
time
spans
will
look,
normally
they'll
print
every
property
of
a
time
span,
which
is
okay,
total
seconds
total
minutes,
total
hours,
yada
yada,
it's
a
little
bit
more
readable
and
one
thing
that
can
drive
people.
C
C
B
C
C
One
of
the
bits
of
the
subtext
of
the
presentation
here
is
that
in
the
many
years
that
I've
been
doing,
Powershell
I've
learned
a
lot
about
little
nooks
and
crannies,
including
ones
that
most
people
use
every
day
like
formatting,
but
don't
really
kind
of
appreciate
its
spread
and
yeah
I
figured
out
how
to
do
some
cool
things
there.
So
time
zones
are
also
one
of
those
by
default.
Here,
let's
go
over
and
see
what
your
normal
get
time
zone
looks
like.
C
So
here's
how
I
display
it
add
a
virtual
property
to
give
you
the
local
time
in
the
time
zone,
give
you
the
ID
local
time
and
display
name-
and
in
this
case
just
in
this
case.
Yes,
I
do
have
a
centered
column
and
what
we
can
actually
do
is
turn
one
Powershell
one-liner
into
a
world
clock.
So
it's
like
okay,
I'm
gonna,
be
talking
with
somebody
from
say
Japan.
Actually,
this
is
a
bad
example
because,
as
I'm
going
to
accidentally
demonstrate
that
one
doesn't
have
a
standard
time
zone
name,
but
you
know
all
right.
C
A
C
A
What
I
was
thinking
was,
it
would
be
like
and
so
I.
This
is
kind
of,
not
formatting,
but
I,
because
I
deal
with
this
all
the
time.
I
have
two
teams
I
deal
with
in
different
time
zones
across
the
world.
Three
teams
actually-
and
it's
always
like
trying
to
figure
out
times,
is
fun
like
if
I
could
say,
I,
don't
remember
what
your
command
was
the
get
time
zone
and
then
maybe
pump
that
out
to
like
a
where
and
say
you
know
something
like
this
zone
that
zone
in
that
zone.
So.
C
C
B
C
C
Well,
I
mean
again:
I
was
trying
to
figure
out
what
built-in
commands
and
built-in
formatting
could
be
better,
and
it's
a
perfect
Point
said
in
time
to
say
it
look.
I,
love
GitHub
for
its
collaboration.
If
you
want
formatting
file
an
issue,
if
you
have
an
idea
of
how
to
make
the
perfect
formatting
for
yourself
give
me
a
PR,
you
know
water's.
C
Anyway,
we
can
modify
the
prompt
and
that
can
be
incredibly
useful.
This
is
why,
however,
Posh
makes
that
easy.
So
we
can
see
information
about
the
current
rum,
our
prompt
by
just
saying,
Posh,
prompt
and
Hey.
Look
it's
another
nice
formatter,
now
I'm
going
to
highlight
one
trick
here
that
is
actually
kind
of
a
happy
accident.
C
I'm
gonna
go
back
into
my
vs
code
for
a
second
and
I'm,
going
to
show
you
this
directory
with
a
little
bit
of
fresher
eyes.
So
we
have
Posh
input
and
Posh
prompt
are
both
in
the
subdirectory
of
Posh
stackable.
The
way
this
is
working
is
almost
like
inheritance,
okay,
so
these
aren't
defining
most
of
the
things
of
a
stackable
function.
They
are.
These
only
have
a
readme
that
this
readme
becomes
a
property
on
the
object,
so
I
can
say
something
like
Posh
prompt,
readme.
C
E
C
We
go
I
was
wondering
if
there
was
a
question,
but
anyway
we
got
a
few
note
properties.
The
function
name
our
readme
here
and
the
stack,
which
is
basically
all
the
different
changes
that
we're
going
to
do
to
it.
Making
a
pen
clear,
pop
free
pen
push
replace
stringify
and
get
the
current
prompt
okay.
So
let's
modify
the
prompt
to
replace
the
username
with
asterisks.
C
Now
again,
this
is,
if
you
want
your
prompt,
you
can
keep
your
prompt
if
you
had
Powerline
loaded,
it's
going
to
modify
the
power
line
prompt.
Instead,
if
you
had
any
prompt
modifications
before
you
loaded
Posh,
it
will
keep
those
in
the
stack
and
once
you
unload,
Posh
it'll
replace
your
prompt
with
whatever
it
was
originally.
C
Now
we
can
provide
a
string
or
script
block
or
Emoji
number
to
replace
parts
of
it,
so
I'm
going
to
basically
say:
hey,
replace
the
PS
in
space
with
this
emoji
and
there's
one
half
of
it.
Look
there
and,
let's
fix
the
other
end
cool
and
I'm,
going
to
add
some
content
to
the
end
of
The,
Prompt
and
I'm
actually
going
to
be
exposing
some
prompt,
widgets
going
forward,
but
I'm
not
quite
there
yet.
C
But
let's
just
go
ahead
and
add
that
and
I
don't
think
that's
quite
distinctive
enough,
because
my
cursor
is
going
to
be
over
here.
So
let's
undo
that
step
or
pop
it
and,
let's
add
a
better
end
by
enclosing
it
in
Brackets
and
there
we
go
So
Posh
provides
those
fundamental
building
blocks
to
modify
your
prompt.
May
it
make
your
shell
more
sleek
and
just
if
I
want
to
say
screw
all
this
I
can
say:
Posh
prompt,
I
can
type.
C
So
you
got
the
same
approach:
hey
here's,
a
readme
there's
where
my
current
profile
is:
here's,
how
I
can
add
stuff
to
it
or
remove
stuff
to
it
and
I
can
type
it
in
get
member
and
see
what
I
can
do.
I
can
import
or
remove
modules
I
can
find
matches
within
it.
I
can
create
a
new
one.
I
can
get
the
file
or
files
so
get
the
specific
file
get
any
current
files.
C
And
I
think
this
is
kind
of
the
end
of
the
Mr
Toad's
Wild
Ride
for
a
second
I'm,
just
gonna
go
double
check.
It's
pretty
unique
in
its
approach
does
not
contain
any
commands.
It's
built
entirely
by
adding
Powershell
formatting,
extending
Powershell
types
built
primarily
with
easy
out
help
out,
generates
documentation.
I
guess
that's
worth
briefly
going
over.
C
So
I
can
say
you
know
this
gets
the
height
of
the
host,
for
instance
right
and
I.
Try
to
make
various
things
in
Powershell
a
little
bit
easier
to
get
at,
so
you
can
get
Posh
dot,
run
space
or
Posh
dot
process
or
Posh
dot
modules
or
jobs
or
host
history.
Etc
history
is
probably
or
not,
history
errors,
probably
a
good
one
to
kind
of
talk
through.
Very
briefly,
let's
see
if
I've
gotten
the
errors.
C
A
C
A
C
A
E
C
So
one
of
the
other
things
that
it
does
is
it
gives
you
the
ability
to
manipulate
default
parameters,
I'm
typing
the
wrong
variable,
so
I
can
say
Posh
parameters
and
I
can
manipulate
defaults
and
I
actually
set
a
couple
of
defaults
here.
All
right
actually
ignore
that
one,
this
one.
This
was
a
trick
that
I
had
had
in
a
module
called
ice
pack
a
long
time
ago,
and
ice
pack
was
for
customizing
the
ISE.
It
was
a
very
nice
and
helpful
module
in
the
same
sort
of
ways.
C
This
is
but
I,
don't
think
I've
opened
up
the
ISE
in
a
couple
years.
I,
don't
know
how
many
people
on
this
call
have
so
I
wanted
to
have
that
capability,
but
the
last
time
I
built
it
I
had
built
this
by
overwriting
the
function
out
default
and
this
time
I
got
to
make
it
even
smarter
and
I.
Basically
just
say
whenever
out
default
is
run.
It
has
a
you
know.
You
got
your
Global
PS
default
parameter
values
here
this.
C
C
Well,
if
you
got
Posh
loaded
dollar
last
output
and
what's
especially
nice
about
the
way
this
particular
trick
runs,
is
it
just
overwrites
the
last
one?
Every
time
it
runs
so
you're
not
actually
shooting
up
memory
to
try
to
keep
a
big
history
of
outputs
you're,
literally
only
ever
having
one
in
there
at
a
time.
C
A
C
On
that
note,
I
am
so
surprised.
How
is
Powershell
been
around
16
17
years
and
nobody
else
has
named
it
Posh.
Is
it
a
matter
of
like
you
know
the
pure
Gall
to
to
name
your
own
module
Posh
or
is
it
everybody
added
something
else
for
some
other
clarifying
reason
I'm?
Why
was
this
name
still
available?
D
C
C
C
As
a
place
of
capricious,
Geeks
and
nervous
lawyers
and
I
might
be
a
capricious
geek,
but
I've
got
enough
nervous
lawyer
inside
of
me
to
try
to
be
conscious
of
the
boundaries
of
potential
litigation,
so
I'm
good
with
the
Illusions
but
I,
don't
think
I'm
actually
going
to
directly
make
a
meme
that
references
this
and
now.
If
anybody
else
wants
to
do
this,
then
you
know
hey.
A
C
Know
you
did
I
just
wanted.
I
already
said
that
joke
at
the
beginning,
I
have
more
what
the
heck
we've
got.
Joe
conception
we
do
and
beyond
that,
like
pasha's,
been
a
nickname
for
Powershell
for
forever.
So
you
know
there
are
many
Avenues
to
make
joking
fun
of
the
module
name.
Everybody
can
have
that
fun
if,
as
long
as
they
keep
it
pretty
good
natured
I'm
happy
I
I,
don't
know
how
to
say
it
other
than
I'm
this.
This
module
is,
to
some
degree
a
little
clickbaity
like
it's.
It's
not
going
to.
C
D
I
had
a
question
about
the
the
module
as
a
whole.
Would
you
be
open
to
like
a
module
parameter
that
would
disable
all
the
formatters
and
then
adding
a
command
where
I
could
add
the
ones
I
want
like
say,
for
instance,
I've
worked
on
a
formatter
for
my
file
system.
A
lot
and
I.
Don't
want
that
one
necessarily
in
there
kind
of
thing.
C
I'm
mixed
on
that
particular
request
and
here's
the
rationale
why?
Okay,
the
first
part
of
it
is
technical
right
now
easy
out,
creates
one
format
file
and
one
types
file,
basically
I
could
make
it
create
many
formats
and
types
files
and
load
those
up
individually,
and
that
might
not
be
a
bad
feature
to
add
to
easy
out.
Okay,
so
I'm
not
opposed
to
the
idea
to
have
that
capability,
it's
just
a
little
bit
harder
of
a
path
and
definitely
more
complex
from
an
authorship
perspective.
C
The
other
sort
of
problem
is
essentially
well
like
take
the
prompt
customization
versus
the
formatting.
If
you
have
to
opt
into
something,
less
people
are
going
to
use
it
and
I'd.
Rather
people
opt
interrupt
out
of
the
module
overall,
then
start
to
get
into
that
game
of
you
know
turn
this
on
turn
that
on
now,
I
do
want
to
make
various
things
more.
C
Customizable
like
I,
want
to
make
the
icons
more
customizable
and
colorization
more
customizable
throughout
how
exactly
I
get
there
and
how
how
elegantly
I
make
that
kind
of
customization
that
you
want.
Those
are
open
questions,
but
it's
not
my
main
priority
because
like
if,
if
you're
going
to
be
the
type
of
user
that
basically
wants
to
go
a
la
carte,
you're,
probably
not
exactly
the
ideal
type
of
user,
for
a
module
just
designed
to
make
things
easy
like.
If
you
wanted
to
get
into
the
technical
iterations
of
things.
C
The
thing
that
I'm
most
concerned
about
actually
is
people
using
the
Posh
variable
in
their
scripts
and
getting
used
to
programming
with
Powershell
with
its
help
and
then
having
that
kind
of
screw
you
up
later.
When
you
try
to
build
something
that
doesn't
have
poshloaded
so
yeah,
it's
they're,
good
technical
questions.
C
It's
just
not
something
that
I
I
am
at
least
I.
Try
to
be
a
judicious
developer,
and
part
of
that
is
knowing
when
you're
biting
off
more
than
you
want
to
chew
at
a
moment
and
I
know
that
that
would
be
a
larger
bite
than
I
wanted
to
chew.
Especially
then
I
wanted
a
tube
prior
to
delivering
a
talk
at
a
conference.
A
E
C
Let
me
get
terminal
loaded
back
up
again
and
show
a
bit
of
another
module
off
for
a
second
yeah,
so
in
cool
module
territory,
we've
got
a
module
called
terminal
velocity,
which
is
a
module
I
built
to
customize
terminal.
Okay-
and
hopefully
this
will
be
my
friend
here,
but
we're
going
to
get
or
WT
color
scheme
pipe
to
get
random.
C
C
C
In
BS
code,
they'd
be
it'd,
be
doing
the
same
thing
in
case
you're,
not
aware.
There's
the
I
term
two
color
scheme
repository,
which
just
has
I,
think
a
few
hundred
different
color
schemes
that
you
can
use.
Okay
and
yeah
I
could
probably
get
into
the
slight
hell
of
figuring
out
whether
you're
on
a
light
or
a
dark
color
scheme
and
doing
something
custom
in
that
case,
but
I'm
not
trying
to
rush
right
there,
either.
E
A
C
A
C
A
C
Other
Powershell
things
that
I
can
show
sort
of
kinda,
also
slight
misnomers,
so
we're
gonna
go
to
4bitcss.com,
which
is
a
creation
on
top
of
that
iterm
color
scheme
stuff
that
I
mentioned
earlier.
The
reason
it's
called
4-bit
CSS
is
it
gives
you
16
colors
technically,
it
actually
gives
18
colors,
because
you
can
have
a
different
foreground
and
you
know
background
color
as
well.
Well,
yeah
at
this
point
you
lose
your
catch
points.
A
C
C
I
know
this
might
be
a
really
really
obscure,
like
cultural,
deep
cut,
but
I
don't
know
if
anybody's
seen
the
movie
Shallow
Grave,
it's
like
very
early,
you
and
McGregor
like
early
90s,
and
it
involves
them
interviewing
roommates
at
the
beginning
of
it,
and
they
have
a
goth
candidate
and
Ian
McGregor
asks
her.
What
do
you
wake
up
in
the
morning?
Do
you
decide
on
the
shade
of
black
to
wear.
E
C
E
B
Now
this
is
really
good
James.
You
obviously
have
spent
time.
I
I
really
do
appreciate
how,
when
you
were
colorizing
get
number,
you
thought
about
things
that
most
people
won't
think
about,
which
is:
where
does
your
eye
track
and
how
quickly
can
you
disseminate
information
and
so
that
that
really
shows
to
your
attention
to
detail
and
your
knowledge
of
the
subject?
So
this
was
a
great
presentation.
C
Like
you,
especially
considering
I
just
want
to
be
really
clear
here.
This
is
not
technically
a
presentation.
This
is
an
awful
cuff.
Here's
a
few
demos,
here's
a
fresh
off
the
press,
module
for
you,
guys
and
I
didn't
really
want
to
write
a
big
PowerPoint
after
a
bunch
of
talks
in
the
summer.
So
if
anybody
wants
me
to
come
by
and
actually
talk
about
this
at
a
summit-like
thing,
I'm
going
to
be
happy
to
and
I'm
pretty
sure
that
this
would
be
worth
talking
about
something
like
that.

you'd.
Like
ask

for
a
couple
of
hours.
If
you
want-
and
let
me
know
what
your
Powershell

solve
them
together,
all
right
so
yeah
should
I
stop
sharing
now
or
we
yeah.
D
A
Let's,
let's
wrap
up
