<#
.SYNOPSIS
    Batch Template Transpiler.
.DESCRIPTION
    Allows PipeScript to generate Windows Batch Scripts.

    Because Batch Scripts only allow single-line comments, this is done using a pair of comment markers.
            

    ```batch
    :: {

    Uncommented lines between these two points will be ignored

    :: # Commented lines will become PipeScript / PowerShell.
    :: param($message = 'hello world')
    :: "echo $message"

    :: }
    ```
.EXAMPLE
    Invoke-PipeScript {
        $batchScript = '
    :: {

    Uncommented lines between these two points will be ignored

    :: # Commented lines will become PipeScript / PowerShell.
    :: param($message = "hello world")
    :: "echo $message"

    :: }
    '
    
        [OutputFile('.\HelloWorld.ps1.cmd')]$batchScript
    }

    Invoke-PipeScript .\HelloWorld.ps1.cmd
