Chapter 4. Customizing the PowerShell Environment > Using Built-in Aliases
Using Built-in Aliases
A number of aliases come built in. For example, when you type ft, you are actually using an alias that maps to the cmdlet Format-Table. You don’t need to include any built-in aliases in your PowerShell profile file. You already have access to them even if you are not using a PowerShell profile.
PS C:\Users\ Administrator> Get-Alias PS C:\Users\ Administrator> Get-Alias | Measure | This cmdlet allows you to view the list of the built-in aliases included with Exchange Management Shell. There are 139 built-in aliases in Exchange Management Shell in the RTM version of Exchange 2010. The second example will count them for you. (Note the use of an alias to count the number of aliases. Measure is an alias for Measure-Object.) |
