Start-iseTranscript
by dwarfsoft on Jul.15, 2014, under Scripting, Tweet, Work
I finally got around to fixing one of my biggest bugbears in PowerShell ISE 2.0, and when I did so I found on our new management server that it was broken for PowerShell ISE 4.0. I’m talking about Command Transcription. One of the most useful things I use in my day to day work is Start-Transcript for the standard PowerShell Shell. I have it automatically start in my PowerShell Profile so I can always go back and find how I achieved a particular goal.
I don’t use PowerShell ISE often, but when I do it’s usually because I am researching how to get something to work, or doing a colorized copy of the code for documentation purposes. For a long time I was happy enough with the suggested “Start-iseTranscript” provided by the Scripting Guy Blog.
