Supports configurable browser behavior, monitor selection, and window positioning. Queries are URL encoded and opened using the specified language's Grokipedia domain with full localization support. The function provides comprehensive browser control including private browsing modes, window positioning, keyboard automation, and multi-monitor support. It automatically handles URL encoding and language code mapping for international Grokipedia domains. .PARAMETER Queries One or more search terms to look up on Grokipedia. Multiple queries will open in separate browser instances. Supports pipeline input for batch processing. .PARAMETER Private Opens in incognito/private browsing mode for anonymous searches. .PARAMETER Force Force enable debugging port, stopping existing browsers if needed. .PARAMETER Edge Opens in Microsoft Edge browser. .PARAMETER Chrome Opens in Google Chrome browser. .PARAMETER Chromium Opens in Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome, depending on default browser. .PARAMETER Firefox Opens in Mozilla Firefox browser. .PARAMETER All Opens in all registered modern browsers simultaneously. .PARAMETER Monitor The monitor to use for window placement. 0=default, -1=discard positioning, -2=configured secondary monitor, positive numbers=specific monitor. .PARAMETER FullScreen Opens in fullscreen mode using F11 key simulation. .PARAMETER Width The initial width of the webbrowser window in pixels. .PARAMETER Height The initial height of the webbrowser window in pixels. .PARAMETER X The initial X position of the webbrowser window. .PARAMETER Y The initial Y position of the webbrowser window. .PARAMETER Left Place browser window on the left side of the screen. .PARAMETER Right Place browser window on the right side of the screen. .PARAMETER Top Place browser window on the top side of the screen. .PARAMETER Bottom Place browser window on the bottom side of the screen. .PARAMETER Centered Place browser window in the center of the screen. .PARAMETER ApplicationMode Hide the browser controls for distraction-free reading. .PARAMETER NoBrowserExtensions Prevent loading of browser extensions. .PARAMETER DisablePopupBlocker Disable the popup blocker. .PARAMETER AcceptLang Set the browser accept-lang http header for language preferences. .PARAMETER KeysToSend Keystrokes to send to the browser window after opening. Uses the same format as GenXdev.Windows\Send-Key cmdlet. .PARAMETER SendKeyEscape Escape control characters when sending keystrokes to the browser. .PARAMETER SendKeyHoldKeyboardFocus Prevent returning keyboard focus to PowerShell after sending keystrokes. .PARAMETER SendKeyUseShiftEnter Send Shift+Enter instead of regular Enter for line breaks. .PARAMETER SendKeyDelayMilliSeconds Delay between sending different key sequences in milliseconds. .PARAMETER FocusWindow Focus the browser window after opening. .PARAMETER SetForeground Set the browser window to foreground after opening. .PARAMETER Maximize Maximize the window after positioning .PARAMETER SetRestored Restore the window to normal state after positioning .PARAMETER RestoreFocus Restore PowerShell window focus after opening browser. .PARAMETER NewWindow Don't re-use existing browser window, instead create a new one. .PARAMETER PassThru Returns a PowerShell process object representing the browser process. .PARAMETER ReturnURL Don't open webbrowser, just return the formatted Grokipedia URL. .PARAMETER ReturnOnlyURL After opening webbrowser, return the formatted Grokipedia URL. .EXAMPLE Open-GrokipediaQuery -Queries "PowerShell" -Monitor 0 -Language "English" Opens a Grokipedia search for "PowerShell" in English on the default monitor. .EXAMPLE wiki "PowerShell" -mon 0 Opens a Grokipedia search using the alias with positional parameters. .EXAMPLE "PowerShell", "Windows" | Open-GrokipediaQuery -Private Searches for multiple terms in Grokipedia using private browsing mode. #>
