Get-GuiDate: A PowerShell Calendar Tool
Forms and dialogs can augment PowerShell scripts or even resurface them completely to make them more friendly for people who aren’t familiar with the command line. In some cases, a form can even function as a complete script in and of itself. The Get-GuiDate script, developed from a prototype written with PrimalForms, is an example of a script that is completely centered around a control (the Windows.Forms.MonthCalendar control) embedded in a Windows Form.

Updated PowerShell TreeForm
Not too long ago I wrote a blog post about a Windows Form PowerShell script to display a folder tree. I got some feedback about an error when running the script. The problem was that I was casting a variable in one of the functions to a specific type. Normally this is considered a best practice. But in this situation the [System.Windows.Forms.TreeNode] class depends on the parent class being loaded in your PowerShell session. Even though I thought I had tested thoroughly on PowerShell v1 and v2 I must have missed something and the [System.WIndows.Forms] class was getting loaded into my shell prior to running the script, which is why I never saw the error. Anyway, I’ve since modified the problematic function to remove the type casting.
