ISEScriptingGeek Module

This module is a set of PowerShell ISE add-ons and a few themes. It requires PowerShell 5.1.

As of February 2019, I no longer intend to update or extend this module. VS Code is Microsoft's choice for a scripting editor going forward. The PowerShell ISE isn't going away any time soon, but it is also no longer under active development so I need no point in continuing to develop this module. I will maintain it and address pull requests should members of the community wish to contribute, maintain or extend this module.

Install the module from the PowerShell Gallery.

Install-Module ISEScriptingGeek

Then in your PowerShell_ISE profile script, import the module.

Import-Module ISEScriptingGeek

This will add shortcuts to the Add-Ons menu.

Themes

The themes can be found and imported from the Themes sub-folder of the module. These are optional and are not connected to the add-ons.

Add-ons

Once the module is imported, the add-ons will be listed under ISE Scripting Geek on the Add-ons menu in the ISE. A number of the add-ons fall into grouped sub-folders:

Bookmarks

A set of functions for creating and working with "bookmarks" to files opened in the ISE.

Convert

The module will add shortcuts to code that will perform conversions on the file or selected text.

Dates and times

A set of functions for inserting date/time in different formats.

Files

A set of functions for working with open files and their associated folders

Work

A set of functions for creating and managing a "work list" of files

Miscellaneous

There are also other scripts directly off the ISE Scripting Geek menu, these functions provide various capabilities:

• Print, Run, or Sign a script
• Send the script to Word (with or without color)
• Send selected text to different search engines
• Help functions
• New CIM Command, DSC Resource snippets, etc.
