-====== Powershell Setup ======
+====== PowerShell Setup ======
+===== Setup PowerShell Gallery =====
   - Run ''Get-PSRepository'' to verify if PowerShell Gallery is set up properly. If it isn't, you probably need to [[powershell_cheat_sheet#get_install-module_working_behind_a_webproxy|set up the web proxy settings]].
-  - Run ''Find-Module posh-git'' to verify that modules can be installed. If you get 'Unable to resolve package source...' you will need to [[powershell_manual_module_installation|install it manually]] (don't bother trying to fix it).
+  - If ''https://www.powershellgallery.com/api/v2'' is untrusted, run this ''Set-PSRepository -Name PSGallery -InstallationPolicy Trusted''.
-  - Run ''Install-Module posh-git -Scope CurrentUser''.
+  - Run ''Find-Module BurntToast'' to verify that modules can be installed. If you get 'Unable to resolve package source...' you will need to [[powershell_manual_module_installation|install it manually]] (don't bother trying to fix it).
-  - Run ''Install-Module oh-my-posh -Scope CurrentUser''.
-  - The theme you like was 'Paradox', but is now 'avit'.
+===== Install Stuff =====
+  - Run ''Install-Module -Name BurntToast -Repository PSGallery''.
   - Run ''Install-Module -Name Terminal-Icons -Repository PSGallery''.
-  - Run ''code $profile''. Update to:<code powershell>
+  - Run ''Install-Module posh-git -Scope CurrentUser''.
-Import-Module posh-git
-Import-Module oh-my-posh
+Older stuff that probably doesn't need to be installed anymore.
-Set-PoshPrompt -Theme avit
-Import-Module -Name Terminal-Icons
+  - Run ''winget install JanDeDobbeleer.OhMyPosh -s winget''.
-Write-Output "Powershell version $($PSVersionTable.PSVersion)"
+===== Setup Profile =====
+  - Find your profile: ''$PROFILE | Format-List -Force''
+  - Test if it exists: ''Test-Path $profile''
+  - Create if it doesn't exist: ''New-Item -path $profile -type file –force''
+  - Edit it: ''code $profile''
+  - Put just this in it:<code powershell>
+. 'D:\Bin\Manuka\General Scripts\PowerShell startup.ps1'
+</code>
+===== Picking a Theme =====
+Current favorites: **pure** (minimalist) or **iterm2**.
+  * Open Windows Terminal.
+  * Spit it with two PowerShell terminals.
+  * In both, switch to an interesting directory, e.g. ''cd C:\Dev\Common\Auto Hot Key\''
+  * In one terminal, type ''Get-PoshThemes''.
+  * In the other, type ''Set-PoshPrompt -Theme  whatever'' to play with it.
+===== Screw it, use my own =====
+Run this:
+<code powershell>
+oh-my-posh init pwsh --config 'D:\Bin\Common\Settings\Oh-my-posh themes\tallguy.omp.json' | Invoke-Expression
 </code>
