Discover Intellipad commands using PowerShell

Get-IntellipadCommands | Out-GridView

This PowerShell snippet searches all the IronPython files deliver with Intellipad, looks for the key word MetaData.CommandExecuted, then extracts the Command Name, Short Cut Key, File Name and  the Line Number the command was found on.

Out-GridView, delivered with PowerShell V2, displays it.

Now you can sort and filter commands and find their short cut key. Then, when you want to extend Intellipad and need an IronPython snippet to follow, you have the File Name and Line Number the command is on.
