My PowerShell Profile

This is my PowerShell profile, it does a few nice things such as add open and edit commands to the shell. Most importantly though it customizes my prompt to shorten it while still showing how deep I am in the directory hierarchy. I've also set up poshgit as well as a few other helpers and functions.

function Open($path) {
	explorer $path
}

function Edit {
 
	[CmdletBinding()]
	Param(
	
		[Parameter(Mandatory = $False, ValueFromPipeline = $True, ValueFromRemainingArguments = $True, Position = 0)] 
		$File
	)
	 
	Process {
		$app = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\notepad++.exe"
	
		if ($File -ne $null) {
			$parameters = '"' + $File + '"'
			
			$options = New-Object "System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo"
			$options.FileName = $app
			$options.Arguments = $parameters
			$options.WorkingDirectory = $pwd
			
			$temp = [Diagnostics.Process]::Start($options).WaitForInputIdle(500)
		}
		Invoke-Item $app
	}
}
