Adding Utils to Profile

By adding the util scripts to the powershell profile, one can access all util scripts globally by just using util.<script name>.
The powershell profile file can be found in C:\Users%USERNAME%\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1
You can define a repo variable and add all util scripst you plan on using.

$ps_repo_dir = "C:\Users\BoZ\dev\powershell"
New-Alias util.Get-Media-Info $ps_repo_dir\util\Get-Media-Info.ps1
New-Alias util.Extract-Files-From-Folders $ps_repo_dir\util\Extract-Files-From-Folders.ps1
...

or in case you want your profile to automatically load all util scripst on startup, you can do the following

$ps_util_path = "<PATH TO REPOSITORY>"
$utils = @(Get-ChildItem -literalPath $ps_util_path | where {$_.extension -eq '.ps1'})
foreach($util in $utils){
	$utilAlias = "util." + $util.basename
	New-Alias -Name $utilAlias -Value $util.FullName
}
Clear-Variable -Name "utilAlias" -Scope Global
Clear-Variable -Name "util" -Scope Global
Clear-Variable -Name "utils" -Scope Global
