Function Write-Out
{
	<#
	.SYNOPSIS
	Write output to console and/or log file. Supports multiple foreground and background colors on a single line and 
	advanced options to insert lines, spaces, or tabs before or after the text as well as timestamps.
	.DESCRIPTION
	Uses Write-Host to output color text to the console, and supports using multiple foreground and background colors 
	on a single line. Uses Set-Content and Add-Content to output to a file.
	
	It works by accepting strings as an array and then you can assign the foreground or background colors by passing
	them as arrays for the matching text. It also accepts Default which allows you skip specifying a color and use the 
	default.
	
	This function requires Powershell 4.0 to support the alias attribute in the function.
	.PARAMETER Text
	Optional. Array of strings to write to console/log. If you do not need to use multiple colors on a single line you can pass a single string instead of an array of strings. Otherwise, if you need to multiple colors on a single line pass an array of strings and associated colors using -ForegroundColor, -BackgroundColor, -ForegroundColorDefault, or -BackgroundColorDefault.
	.PARAMETER ForegroundColor

	.PARAMETER BackgroundColorDefault
	Optional. Default background color to write to console. Default is none.

	.NOTES
	Author: Brian Steinmeyer
	URL: http://sigkillit.com/
	Created: 4/18/2020
	Version 1.3
	- Added LogOnly Option for only writing text to a log file
	Version 1.2
	- Set Text, ForegroundColor, and BackgroundColor to default value of @() to fix errors checking counts in some circumstances
	- Fixed an issue where ForegroundColorDefault and BackgroundColorDefault were not working properly in some circumstances
	- Added Requires -Version 4.0
	Version 1.1
	- Completely rewrote the "Main Text" section
	- Added "Default" as a color option, which allows you to use the default values for foreground/background 
	  - Useful when you want to specify a backgroundcolor in certain parts of a line like the middle
	  - Ex: Write-Out -Text "How to ","highlight ","the middle text" -BackgroundColor Default,Yellow,Default
	Version: 1.0
	- Initial Creation inspired by PSWriteColor (https://github.com/EvotecIT/PSWriteColor)
	  - Improved upon by switching Foreground and Background Colors to default values if colors are not specifid for all strings.
	    Will also ignore extra colors if more colors are specified than strings specified.

	Write-Out -Text "Start with Red Text ","Then Switch to Blue Text ","Now Magenta" -ForegroundColor Red,Blue,Magenta 
	.EXAMPLE
	Write-Out -Text "White on Black ","Black on White ","Dark Cyan on Cyan ","Yellow on Green ","Default Color" -ForegroundColor White,Black,DarkCyan,Yellow -BackgroundColor Black,White,Cyan,Green
	.EXAMPLE
	Write-Out -Text "Make this"," entire line"," the same color by setting defaults" -ForegroundColorDefault Yellow -BackgroundColorDefault Magenta
	.EXAMPLE
	Write-Out -Text "Add a blank line and two tabs ","before ","my text" -ForegroundColor Green,Cyan,White -PreLine 1 -PreTab 2
	.EXAMPLE
	Write-Out -Text "Add two blank ","lines ","after my text" -ForegroundColor White,Green,White -PostLine 2
	.EXAMPLE
	Write-Out -Text "Add 3 spaces before my text" -ForegroundColor Gray -Prespace 3
	.EXAMPLE
	Write-Out -Text "White text and a tab after" -ForegroundColor White -NoNewLine -PostTab 1
	Write-Out -Text "Black text on Yellow ","and then back to white" -ForegroundColor Black,White -BackgroundColor Yellow
	.EXAMPLE
	Write-Out -Text "An easy way to ","highlight ","text in the middle" -BackgroundColor Default,Yellow

	Write-Out -Text "You can even add a ","time stamp ","before your output" -ForegroundColor White,Green,White -TimeStamp -PreLine 3
	.EXAMPLE
	Write-Out -Text "You can change the ","time stamp format" -ForegroundColor White,Yellow -TimeStamp -TimeStampFormat "dd-MM-yyy HH:mm" -PreLine 1 -PostLine 1
	.EXAMPLE
	Write-Out -Text "An"," Error"," occurred let's write overwrite/create a new log file" -ForegroundColor White,Red,White -TimeStamp -LogFile "script.log" -Overwrite
