Thanks to PowerShell Here I can conveniently get a PowerShell window from wherever I happen to be using Windows Explorer. But I vastly prefer to wander my directories inside of PowerShell, only switching to Explorer when I need to do something that Explorer does much better. (For example, source control through TortoiseSVN.)
Adding this function to my PowerShell Profile, I quickly get an explorer window just by typing ‘exp’.
function explore ( [string] $dir )
{
explorer.exe $dir
}
set-alias -name 'exp' -value explore
Usage:
exp
or exp 'subdirectory'
Enjoy!
