Setting the console title to be your current working directory

Also, given how common the request is, I'd ask Jeffrey to (pretty-please) also include in this post a prompt function that sets the title to include pwd.

Ask and yea shall receive:

function Prompt
{
  $host.ui.RawUI.WindowTitle = $(get-location)
  "PS> "
}
