PowerShell provider for SmartPhone, PocketPC, Windows Mobile: Beta 0.4 Release

[x0n]

Hey all,

http://www.codeplex.com/psmobile/

Installer is built using WiX ps extensions. Source snapshot of this release available as separate download, and also in codeplex TFS. I am not releasing the source of my common provider library, but symbols are included in the source download and it is not obfuscated.

Instructions and rudimentary guff about it on home wiki page, but more to come.

fun things to do:

ps c:\> add-pssnapin psmobile
ps c:\> cd mobile:
ps mobile:\> cd \temp
ps mobile:\temp> copy \windows\*.gif .
ps mobile:\temp> ii banner.gif
ps mobile:\temp> ii -local banner.gif
ps mobile:\temp> ii \windows\tasks.exe
ps mobile:\temp> convertfrom-wmfile *.gif c:\temp\

etc.

"Invokability" (visible via format-list) is determined via registry checks on local desktop AND remote device registry. Two additional atttributes are available for file modes: "i" and "m" for InRom and RomModule respectively. Attributes can be manipulated just like regular FileInfos, where permitted.

Have fun, and feedback/suggestions are very welcome.
