Host Sample 06
==========================
This sample application shows building a fairly complete
interactive console-based host which allows users to run
cmdlets and see the output. This sample reads commands from
the command line, executes them, and displays the results to
the console. The sample user interface classes are built on
top of System.Console.

Sample Objectives
=================
This sample demonstrates the following:
1. Creating your own host interface, host user interface, and
host raw user interface classes.
2. Building a console application that uses these host
classes to build an interactive PowerShell shell.
3. Creating the $profile variable and loading the four
different profiles:
* Current user, current host
* Current user, all hosts
* All users, current host
* All users, all hosts
4. Implementing the IHostUISupportsMultipleChoiceSelection
interface.
5. Implementing the IHostSupportsInteractiveSession interface
to support interactive remoting via the Enter-PSSession
and Exit-PSSession cmdlets.
6. Using the PSParser.Tokenize API to colorize the command line
as it is typed.
