PowerShell - type no inside every directory and open up notepad2

Question

Do you know the notepad command in PowerShell or cmd.exe? I would like to do the same for NotePad2 I would like to type the following command inside PowerShell and open up the me.txt file;

PS C:\Apps> no -me

how can I configure that?

Can you clarify your question? Are you trying to create an alias? — jscott, May 27 '11 at 17:39
@jscott I would like to type this `no -me` inside PowerShell and open up the me.txt file with Notepad2. I saw some guy doing that and wonder how it can be implemented. — tugberk, May 27 '11 at 18:10

You can create an alias, except the -me would only be me.

PS > set-alias no notepad
PS > no me

You would have to set one to the full path of notepad2.exe so it would be something like

PS > set-alias no c:\my\customdirectory\notepad2.exe
