#
# UPDATE:
# Fixed IsGlobalScope so that it’s right (as long as you dot-source the call to Get-Scope)
# Added IsInteractive calculation so you can tell if the caller was invoked from the command line (vs. from another script/function)
#
#function Get-Scope {
#.Synopsis 
#  Determine the scope of execution (are you in a module? how many scope layers deep are you?)
#.Parameter Invocation
#  In order to correctly determine the scope, this function requires that you pass in the $MyInvocation variable when you call it.
#.Parameter ToHost
#  If you just want to *see* the value in the console to debug something, you can pass this switch (and optionally, set the foreground/background colors)
#.Parameter Foreground
#  The Foreground color of host output
#.Parameter Background
#  The Background color of host output
#.Example
# $scope = Get-Scope $MyInvocation
#
# Description
# -----------
# Call Get-Scope and store the output so you can test if you're in module scope, etc.
#.Example
# Get-Scope $MyInvocation -ToHost Magenta DarkBlue
#
# Description
# -----------
# Call Get-Scope and write the output to host, specifying the foreground and background colors
