Examples

Example 1:

# Capture credentials.
$credential = Get-Credential

# Create new WinSCP session using captured credentials.
# New-WinSCPSession sets the PSDefaultParameterValue of the WinSCPSession parameter for all other cmdlets to this WinSCP.Session object.
# You can set it to a variable if you would like, but it is only necassary if you will have more then one session open at a time.
New-WinSCPSession -Credential $credential -HostName $env:COMPUTERNAME -Protocol Ftp

# Use that session to create a new Directory.
New-WinSCPItem -Path './remoteDirectory' -ItemType Directory

# Upload a file to the directory.
Send-WinSCPItem -Path 'C:\localDirectory\localFile.txt' -Destination '/remoteDirectory/'

# Close the session object.
Remove-WinSCPSession

Example 2:

# Create session, download a file, and close the session in one line.
# If the WinSCP.Session Object is passed through the pipeline it will be auto-closed upon the completion of that command.
New-WinSCPSession -Credential (Get-Credential) -HostName $env:COMPUTERNAME -Protocol Ftp | Receive-WinSCPItem -Path './file.txt' -Destination 'C:\folder\'

This is still a beta version, with most of the functionality available with WinSCP, I intend on developing this extensively.
