SHORT DESCRIPTION
Overview of the PowerShellBuddy module.

LONG DESCRIPTION
PowerShellBuddy is a lightweight collection of practical PowerShell commands for
everyday scripting, exploration, and interactive shell work.

It combines small utilities for logging, hashing, prompt customization, weather
and news lookups, keyboard shortcut references, and workstation readiness or
security-oriented checks.

Some commands are cross-platform, while others are intentionally Windows-
focused because they depend on WPF, Defender, certificate stores, or the
System.Speech APIs.
