## This is an overhaul of Jeffrey Snover's original Start-Demo script by Joel "Jaykul" Bennett
##
## I've switched it to using ReadKey instead of ReadLine (you don't have to hit Enter each time)
## As a result, I've changed the names and keys for a lot of the operations, so that they make 
## sense with only a single letter to tell them apart (sorry if you had them memorized).
##
## I've also been adding features as I come across needs for them, and you'll contribute your 
## improvements back to the PowerShell Script repository as well.
##################################################################################################
## Revision History (version 3.3)
## 3.3.3 Fixed:    Script no longer says "unrecognized key" when you hit shift or ctrl, etc.
##       Fixed:    Blank lines in script were showing as errors (now printed like comments)
## 3.3.2 Fixed:    Changed the "x" to match the "a" in the help text
## 3.3.1 Fixed:    Added a missing bracket in the script
## 3.3 - Added:    Added a "Clear Screen" option
##     - Added:    Added a "Rewind" function (which I'm not using much)
## 3.2 - Fixed:    Put back the trap { continue; }
## 3.1 - Fixed:    No Output when invoking Get-Member (and other cmdlets like it???)
## 3.0 - Fixed:    Commands which set a variable, like: $files = ls
##     - Fixed:    Default action doesn't continue
##     - Changed:  Use ReadKey instead of ReadLine
##     - Changed:  Modified the option prompts (sorry if you had them memorized)
##     - Changed:  Various time and duration strings have better formatting
##     - Enhance:  Colors are settable: prompt, command, comment
##     - Added:    NoPauseAfterExecute switch removes the extra pause
##                 If you set this, the next command will be displayed immediately
##     - Added:    Auto Execute mode (FullAuto switch) runs the rest of the script
##                 at an automatic speed set by the AutoSpeed parameter (or manually)
##     - Added:    Automatically append an empty line to the end of the demo script
##                 so you have a chance to "go back" after the last line of you demo
