Perhaps, the PowerTips should indicate which version or known version of PowerShell the tips work for.

@Earl Show-Command is included in PowerShell 3.0. You can get PowerShell 3.0 from here: www.microsoft.com/.../details.aspx

@Walid Toumi, @Boe Prox yes Show-Command works both in the PowerShell 3.0 console as well as with the ISE. In fact, show-Command appears two different ways in the ISE -- one is the Command Add-On, and the other is calling Show-Command directly.

@all Show command does work in the console as well as the ISE, but as Walid mentioned, it only works in PowerShell V3
