PowerShell, as a language, is very self-discoverable.

When you Get-Command, you get a rich object about a command.

This can have a lot of metadata.

You can and should also use inline help (like this script does).

Sometimes, I want more metadata than the command or parameter can actually provide.

	filter Select-StringMatch {
	<#
	.SYNOPSIS
	A companion to select-string to quickly fetch the value of a capture group, named or indexed
	.DESCRIPTION
	With -replace or -match we have the simple $matches['group'] syntax, but this doesn't really exist for Select-String
	and the typical options are not pipeline friendly. The default object returned from Select-String is not that friendly
	either if all you want is the value(s) of a capture group to then pipe to another command. This is basically a pipeline
	friendly version of $matches.

	function ConvertFrom-IniContent {
	<#
	.SYNOPSIS
	Parses content from ini/conf files into nested hashtables.
	.EXAMPLE
	Get-Content \\wsl$\Ubuntu\etc\wsl.conf \| ConvertFrom-IniContent
	.EXAMPLE
	ConvertFrom-IniContent (Get-Content ~\.wslconf -Raw)
	.EXAMPLE
	"

	function Split-Verbose {
	<#
	.SYNOPSIS
	Services a similar purpose to the cmdletbinding WarningVariable parameter but for verbose.
	.NOTES
	In order for this to work your previous command must have 4>&1 at the end of the command prior to piping to this
	#>

	I made this as a way to overcome some limitations with very complicated filter queries that exceed the REST limit, while being able to run them in parallel without resorting to runspaces
