.SYNOPSIS
    Show all verbs in an easy-to-read grid.
.DESCRIPTION
    Show all verbs in a grid, with custom sorting applied so that we can quickly scan each column and find verbs more easily.

    This command was designed for ad-hoc use only. To get the most value out of this command, place it in your profile script. It outputs format data which is not easily used in automated commands.
#>
function verbs {
    # Get the verbs in a sorted list

#region Fix important *nix commands.

# PowerShell comes with some predefined aliases built-in that are designed to
# ease the transition from *nix to PowerShell. While this is well-intentioned,
# it hides the true power that is available in these *nix commands, and it
# makes it much more difficult to compare and contrast between native commands
# in PowerShell and their *nix counterparts. This block of code removes the
# predefined aliases that would otherwise hide these important *nix commands.
