脚本格式-High.ps1:
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Formats input by columns using maximum suitable column number.
.DESCRIPTION
Format-High prints the specified property, expression, or string
representation of input objects filling the table by columns.
It is named in contrast to Format-Wide which prints by rows.
.EXAMPLE
# just items
ls c:\windows | Format-High
# ditto in colors based on PSIsContainer
ls c:\windows | Format-High -Print {$c = if ($args[1].PSIsContainer) {'yellow'} else {'white'}; Write-Host $args[0] -ForegroundColor $c -NoNewline}
# just processes, not good
ps | Format-High
# process names, much better
ps | Format-High Name
# custom expression and width
ps | Format-High {$_.Name + ':' + $_.WS} 70
# process names in colors based on working sets
ps | Format-High Name 70 {$c = if ($args[1].WS -gt 10mb) {'red'} else {'green'}; Write-Host $args[0] -ForegroundColor $c -NoNewline}
