Powershell Scripts

Some fun/interesting powershell scripts.

• A tool to remove projects from a generated msbuild .proj file. Described elsewhere.
• Guess the number of skittles!
• I like having right click context menus in my explorer for opening a command prompt, or a powershell prompt, and starting in the folder I right clicked on. I wrote a powershell script to automatically add these items for me if they don't already exist. :)

• SysInternals provides many very useful tools. I recommend them highly; Microsoft thought so much of them that they bought them :).

  I've found it hard to accept their Pop-up Eula window when running tools like junction.exe, or handle.exe in a remote/automated environment, so I wrote a little powershell utility to accept the eula. To use the function, just pass in the name of the SysInternals utility that you want to accept the eula for in the -Program parameter. The default is "Junction".
