Powershell: Check-in multiple files!
I do a lot of CSS styling with my current project, and with that comes a lot of trial and error. I make image files, upload them, see how they look, delete them, upload new ones, take a look again, and so on.

But I just like Powershell better. Anyway, for the longest time I was clicking on each file individually and checking them in one by one. I figured there has got to be an easier way!
