Summary: Use parameters of Import-Module to control what you import from a Windows PowerShell module.
How can I import only custom aliases and functions from a Windows PowerShell module?
1. Use the –Function and –Alias parameters, and use wildcard characters to control the import (ipmo is an alias for Import-Alias):
ipmo pscx -Function * -Alias *
2. Use the Get-Command cmdlet to verify the import (gcm is an alias for Get-Command and –mo is short for –Module):
gcm -mo pscx
