 ## DESCRIPTION
 
-You can use this command to export a function which is loaded into your PowerShell session. You might need to do this when you create an ad-hoc function and want to save it to a file. This command will take the content of the function and export it to a ps1 file. The function name will be used for the file name. Although, characters like the colon will be stripped to create a filesystem-compatibale filename.

-Format-FunctionName is intended to be used as a helper function in your scripting automation. This is a simple function that will format a verb-noun function name into proper case. It will take an input such as test-data and format it as Test-Data. It will not format as PascalCase. The command also will not verify that the verb component is acceptable. Use Test-FunctionName for that process.
