PowerShell scripts to configure lists in batch

Below are the PowerShell scripts I often use to configure lists in batch.

Hope you would like them :-)

I plan to keep updating the scripts.  If you think some functionality is very useful but not listed here, please let me know.

function AddColumnToDocLibDefaultView([string]$siteURL)
{
 $site = Get-SPSite($siteURL)
 Write-Host "siteURL is " $siteURL
 foreach($web in $site.AllWebs)
 {
  Write-Host "Inspecting " $web.Title
  $i = 0
  $listname = @()
  foreach ($list in $web.Lists)
  {
   if($list.BaseType -eq "DocumentLibrary" -and $list.OnQuickLaunch)
   {
      Write-Host "list title: " $list.Title ", BaseType: " $list.BaseType
      $listname += @($i)
      $listname[$i] = $list.Title
      $i = $i + 1
   }
  }

  #  $viewName = "All Documents"
  foreach ($listtitle in $listname)
  {
    $mylist = $web.Lists[$listtitle]
    $spView = $mylist.DefaultView

    $spField = $mylist.Fields["Version"]
