# Module: PowerShell Console ScreenSaver Version 0.1
# Author: Oisin Grehan ( http://www.nivot.org )

# A PowerShell CMatrix-style screen saver for true-console hosts.
#
# This will not work in Micrisoft's ISE, Quest's PowerGUI or other graphical hosts.
# It should work fine in PowerShell+ from Idera which is a true console.
