powershellscripts's Introduction

PowerShell Scripts

Just a place for me to throw some of my PowerShell scripts.

All scripts contained in this repository are released copyleft under the GNU General Public License V3.0.

File Breakdown

A short explanation of the files in this repository follows:

Scripts (`\.ps1$`)

Common.ps1: This file contains general purpose, utility functions for working with the file system, programs, registry, and scripts.
CommonUX.ps1: This file is for general purpose, utility functions intended to be used throughout the other scripts in this repository. Functions in this file handle display formatting and / or presentation, and are placed here to allow for a consistent UX across the other scripts in this repository.
Install.ps1: An installer script to ✨ auto-magically ✨ copy the scripts and requisite files in this repository to the user profile folder. Just call .\Install.ps1 and the rest just takes care of itself, as it should.
profile.ps1: A PowerShell profile initialization script ($PROFILE.CurrentUserAllHosts) that configures the shell on load. Mostly setting up aliases and ensuring helpful modules are loaded.
Regex.ps1: This file houses a single cmdlet, Run-RegexMatchLoop, a user input loop that prompts for a Regular Expression and matches lines of a given text document (or the default wordlist).
SelfElevatingScriptTemplate.ps1 This is a script template that shows how to auto-elevate a script to be run as an administrator if it was not run with administrator privileges from the start.
Win10Customization.ps1: This script automates some of the tasks related to customization of Windows 10 that I've found myself performing multiple times.

Not Scripts (`.(?<!\.ps1)$`)

DefaultWordlist.txt: A wordlist document with 354,985 words / lines, providing a decent range of input words for testing simple Regular Expressions. Used as the default source document for the Run-RegexMatchLoop cmdlet in Regex.ps1 if one is not provided by the user.
LICENSE: The GNU General Public License Version 3. Because in America, legal stuff like this helps prevent you from being frivolously sued and / or helps you stop people from plagiarizing your work (though I honestly couldn’t care less with this repository).
README.md: This GMF Markdown document.

'which' throws exception if command does not exist

For example:

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.
