.NOTES
General notes

STDIN redirection does not work as expected.

So this may not work:

xalias "exec" pwsh "-noprofile", -nologo, -command, -

function Set-Wrapper {
    [Alias("xalias")]
    param (
        [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)][string]$name,
        [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)][string]$path,
        [Parameter(Mandatory = $false)][string[]]$defaultArgs
    )

    # Check if we need to handle stdin
    $stdinRedirect = if ($defaultArgs -contains '-') {
        '$input | &'
    }
    else {
        '&'
    }

    $functionBody = "$stdinRedirect ""$path"" $($defaultArgs) `$args"
    # Store wrapper info in global variable
    if (-not (Test-Path variable:global:Wrappers)) {
        $Global:Wrappers = @{}
    }
    $Global:Wrappers[$name] = @{
        Name = $name
        Body = $functionBody
    }
    # write-host -ForegroundColor Green $functionBody
