5.6. Summary
In this chapter, I introduced you to several pieces of Windows PowerShell functionality that you can influence at startup.
A PowerShell snapin is a .NET assembly that contains cmdlets and/or providers whose functionality is in some way related.
Windows PowerShell allows you to use profile files to customize the behavior of the PowerShell console, either for all users on a machine or for an individual user.
Aliases allow you to use familiar commands from other command line environments. You can use a number of aliases that are built-in or create your own.
The export-alias, get-alias, import-alias, new-alias, and set-alias cmdlets allow you to work with aliases.
