Function Send-ToPSGridView {

<#
.SYNOPSIS
Send objects to Out-Gridview in Windows PowerShell
.DESCRIPTION
This command is intended as a workaround for PowerShell Core running on a Windows platform, presumably Windows 10. PowerShell Core does not support all of the .NET Framework which means some commands like Out-Gridview are not supported. However, on a Windows desktop you are most likely running Windows PowerShell side by side with PowerShell Core. This command is designed to take objects from a PowerShell expression and send it to an instance of Windows PowerShell running Out-Gridview. You can specify a title and pass objects back to your PowerShell Core session. Note that passed objects will be deserialized versions of the original objects.
.PARAMETER Title

This may not work properly or completely in all PowerShell hosts. Because the function
relies on Get-CimInstance it will not work on Linux platforms. 

It is also admittedly not speedy as it is doing a lot of stuff, although there is an 
attempt to cache some information which gets updated every 15 minutes.

To use, dot source this script in your PowerShell profile to make it your default prompt.

Sample prompt:

jdhitsolutions

#requires -version 5.1

<#
This is a variation of the BoxPrompt code you can find at https://gist.github.com/jdhitsolutions/df808116f9234c070bdaf233418ec59b

Create a lined box with user and location information. The line color will indicate if the user is running elevated.
The prompt will also display the current date and time and a PS prompt with the PowerShell version.

Function Get-GitSize {
 <#
.SYNOPSIS
Get the size of .git folder
.DESCRIPTION
When using git, it creates a hidden folder for change tracking. Because the file is hidden it is easy to overlook how large it might become. Specify the parent folder path. The result displays the size value in bytes but there are additional properties that show the value formatted in KB, MB or GB.
.PARAMETER Path
The path to the parent folder, not the .git folder.
.EXAMPLE
