   Unless I have misunderstood, that is exaxtly what you asked for.   
      
   As far is I know, there is no way to change the font size. I think it   
   might be inherited from Windows' general settings.   
      
   Since your text files contains both commands and file names, it gets   
   quite fiddly. The fact that RD and DEL are both internal commands does   
   not help.   
      
   If you could change your script so that the text file contains only   
   file names, simply pipe the result into Remove-Item:   
      
   powershell -command "Get-Content -Path %1|Out-GridView -OutputMode   
   Multiple|Remove-Item -WhatIf"   
      
   The "-WhatIf" causes the Remove-Item cmdlet to not do anything other   
   than saying what it would have done. Remove when you are ready to test   
   for real.   
      
   You can also add a title to the grid view if you want:   
      
   powershell -command "Get-Content -Path %1|Out-GridView -OutputMode   
   Multiple -Title 'Select files to delete:'|Remove-Item -WhatIf"   
      
   >I need to find Powershell  and Out-GridView reference material.   
      
   In a PowerShell prompt, simply enter:   
      
   Get-Help -Name Out-GridView -Full
