Continuing the tradition, we now have ISEDemo.psm1<\/p>\n

To use it, start ISE and run
Import-Module ISEDemo.psm1 #(attached)
Start-Demo c:\\path\\to\\demofile.txt<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Type enter to execute the command once its finished typing<\/li>\n
  2. You can escape to clear and type some other command<\/li>\n
  3. To get the next command again, execute a blank enter<\/li>\n
  4. To skip, execute s or Move-SkipCommand<\/li>\n
  5. To go back, execute b or Move-PreviousCommand<\/li>\n
  6. To dump the demo contents, execute d or Write-DemoDump<\/li>\n
  7. Stop-Demo returns you to a clean state<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Demo files look like<\/p>\n

    # Get 10 lowest handle count processes
    gps | sort handles | select -first 10<\/p>\n

    # Import all available modules
    Get-Module -ListAvailable | Import-Module<\/p>\n
