T-SQL query to show table definition?

Question

What is a query that will show me the full definition, including indexes and keys for a SQL Server table? I want a pure query - and know that SQL Studio can give this to me

Use this little Windows command-line app that gets the CREATE TABLE script (with constraints) for any table. I've written it in C#. Just compile it and carry it on a memory stick. Perhaps someone can port it to Powershell.

using System;
using System.Linq;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Common;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo;
namespace ViewSource
{
    public class ViewSource
    {
        public static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            if (args.Length != 6)
            {
                Console.Error.WriteLine("Syntax: ViewSource.exe " +
                     "     ");
            }

            Script(args[0], args[1], args[2], args[3], args[4], args[5]);
        }
        private static void Script(string server, string user,
            string password, string database, string schema, string table)
        {
            new Server(new ServerConnection(server, user, password))
                .Databases[database]
                .Tables[table, schema]
                .Script(new ScriptingOptions { SchemaQualify = true,
                                               DriAll = true })
                .Cast()
                .Select(s => s + "\n" + "GO")
                .ToList()
                .ForEach(Console.WriteLine);
        }
    }
}
