    .SYNOPSIS
    Gets the access control (i.e. security descriptor) for a file, directory, or registry key.
 
    .DESCRIPTION
    The `Get-CAcl` function gets the access control (i.e. security descriptor) for a file, directory, or registry key.
    Pipe the item whose security descriptor to get to the function. By default all parts of the security descriptor
    information is returned. To return only specific sections of the security descriptor, pass the sections to get to
    the `IncludeSection` parameter.
 
    .EXAMPLE
    Get-Item . | Get-CAcl
 
    Demonstrates how to get the security descriptor for an item by piping it into `Get-CAcl`.
 
    .EXAMPLE
    Get-Item . | Get-CAcl -IncludeSection ([Security.AccesControl.AccessControlSections]::Access -bor [Security.AccesControl.AccessControlSections]::Owner)
 
    Demonstrates how to only get specific sections of the security descriptor by passing the sections to get to the
    `IncludeSection` parmeter. Also demonstrates how to get multiple sections by using the `-bor` operator to combine
    two `[System.Security.AccesControl.AccessControlSections]` values together.

    The `Get-CPermission` function gets the permissions, as access control rule objects, for a file, directory, or
    registry key. Using this function and module are not recommended. Instead,
 
    * for file directory permissions, use `Get-CNtfsPermission` in the `Carbon.FileSystem` module.
    * for registry permissions, use `Get-CRegistryPermission` in the `Carbon.Registry` module.
    * for private key and/or key container permissions, use `Get-CPrivateKeyPermission` in the `Carbon.Cryptography`
      module.
 
    Pass the path to the `Path` parameter. By default, all non-inherited permissions on that item are returned. To
    return inherited permissions, use the `Inherited` switch.
 
    To return the permissions for a specific user or group, pass the account's name to the `Identity` parameter.

 function Grant-CPermission
{
    <#
    .SYNOPSIS
    Grants permissions on a file, directory, or registry key.
 
    .DESCRIPTION
    The `Grant-CPermission` function grants permissions to files, directories, or registry keys. Using this function and
    module are not recommended. Instead,
 
    * for file/directory permissions, use `Grant-CNtfsPermission` in the `Carbon.FileSystem` module.
    * for registry permissions, use `Grant-CRegistryPermission` in the `Carbon.Registry` module.
    * for private key and/or key container permissions, use `Grant-CPrivateKeyPermission` in the `Carbon.Cryptography`
      module.
 
    Pass the item's path to the `Path` parameter, the name of the user/group receiving the permission to the `Identity`
    parameter, and the permission to grant to the `Permission` parameter. If the identity doesn't have the permission,
    the item's ACL is updated to include the new permission. If the identity has permission, but it doesn't match the
    permission being set, the identity's current permissions are changed to match. If the identity already has the given
    permission, nothing happens. Inherited permissions are ignored. To always grant permissions, use the `Force`
    (switch).
 
    The `Permissions` attribute should be a list of
    [FileSystemRights](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.security.accesscontrol.filesystemrights.aspx) or
    [RegistryRights](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.security.accesscontrol.registryrights.aspx), for
    files/directories or registry keys, respectively. These commands will show you the values for the appropriate
    permissions for your object:
 
        [Enum]::GetValues([Security.AccessControl.FileSystemRights])
        [Enum]::GetValues([Security.AccessControl.RegistryRights])
 
    To get back the access rule, use the `PassThru` switch.
 
    By default, an `Allow` access rule is created and granted. To create a `Deny` access rule, pass `Deny` to the `Type`
    parameter.
 
    To append/add permissions instead of replacing existing permissions, use the `Append` switch.
 
    To control how the permission is applied and inherited, use the `ApplyTo` and `OnlyApplyToChildren` parameters.
    These behave like the "Applies to" and "Only apply these permissions to objects and/or containers within this
    container" fields in the Windows Permission user interface. The following table shows how these parameters are
    converted to `[Security.AccesControl.InheritanceFlags]` and `[Security.AccessControl.PropagationFlags]` values:
 
    | ApplyTo | OnlyApplyToChildren | InheritanceFlags | PropagationFlags
    | ------------------------------- | ------------------- | ------------------------------- | ----------------
    | ContainerOnly | false | None | None
    | ContainerSubcontainersAndLeaves | false | ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit | None
    | ContainerAndSubcontainers | false | ContainerInherit | None
    | ContainerAndLeaves | false | ObjectInherit | None
    | SubcontainersAndLeavesOnly | false | ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit | InheritOnly
    | SubcontainersOnly | false | ContainerInherit | InheritOnly
    | LeavesOnly | false | ObjectInherit | InheritOnly
    | ContainerOnly | true | None | None
    | ContainerSubcontainersAndLeaves | true | ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit | NoPropagateInherit
    | ContainerAndSubcontainers | true | ContainerInherit | NoPropagateInherit
    | ContainerAndLeaves | true | ObjectInherit | NoPropagateInherit
    | SubcontainersAndLeavesOnly | true | ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit | NoPropagateInherit, InheritOnly
    | SubcontainersOnly | true | ContainerInherit | NoPropagateInherit, InheritOnly
    | LeavesOnly | true | ObjectInherit | NoPropagateInherit, InheritOnly
 
    .OUTPUTS
    System.Security.AccessControl.AccessRule. When setting permissions on a file or directory, a
    `System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule` is returned. When setting permissions on a registry key, a
    `System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryAccessRule` returned.

    .EXAMPLE
    Grant-CPermission -Identity ENTERPRISE\Engineers -Permission FullControl -Path C:\EngineRoom
 
    Grants the Enterprise's engineering group full control on the engine room. Very important if you want to get
    anywhere.
 
    .EXAMPLE
    Grant-CPermission -Identity ENTERPRISE\Interns -Permission ReadKey,QueryValues,EnumerateSubKeys -Path rklm:\system\WarpDrive
 
    Grants the Enterprise's interns access to read about the warp drive. They need to learn someday, but at least they
    can't change anything.
 
    .EXAMPLE
    Grant-CPermission -Identity ENTERPRISE\Engineers -Permission FullControl -Path C:\EngineRoom -Clear
 
    Grants the Enterprise's engineering group full control on the engine room. Any non-inherited, existing access rules
    are removed from `C:\EngineRoom`.
 
    .EXAMPLE
    Grant-CPermission -Identity BORG\Locutus -Permission FullControl -Path 'C:\EngineRoom' -Type Deny
 
    Demonstrates how to grant deny permissions on an objecy with the `Type` parameter.
 
    .EXAMPLE
    Grant-CPermission -Path C:\Bridge -Identity ENTERPRISE\Wesley -Permission 'Read' -ApplyTo ContainerAndSubContainersAndLeaves -Append
    Grant-CPermission -Path C:\Bridge -Identity ENTERPRISE\Wesley -Permission 'Write' -ApplyTo ContainerAndLeaves
    -Append
 
    Demonstrates how to grant multiple access rules to a single identity with the `Append` switch. In this case,
    `ENTERPRISE\Wesley` will be able to read everything in `C:\Bridge` and write only in the `C:\Bridge` directory, not
    to any sub-directory.

    .SYNOPSIS
    Revokes permissions on a file, directory, or registry keys.
 
    .DESCRIPTION
    The `Revoke-CPermission` function removes a user or group's *explicit, non-inherited* permissions on a file,
    directory, or registry key. Using this function and module are not recommended. Instead,
 
    * for file directory permissions, use `Revoke-CNtfsPermission` in the `Carbon.FileSystem` module.
    * for registry permissions, use `Revoke-CRegistryPermission` in the `Carbon.Registry` module.
    * for private key and/or key container permissions, use `Revoke-CPrivateKeyPermission` in the `Carbon.Cryptography`
      module.
 
    Pass the path to the item to the `Path` parameter. Pass the user/group's name to the `Identity` parameter. If the
    identity has any non-inherited permissions on the item, those permissions are removed. If the identity has no
    permissions on the item, nothing happens.

    .SYNOPSIS
    Tests permissions on a file, directory, or registry key
 
    .DESCRIPTION
    The `Test-CPermission` function tests if permissions are granted to a user or group on a file, directory, or
    registry key. Using this function and module are not recommended. Instead,
 
    * for file directory permissions, use `Test-CNtfsPermission` in the `Carbon.FileSystem` module.
    * for registry permissions, use `Test-CRegistryPermission` in the `Carbon.Registry` module.
    * for private key and/or key container permissions, use `Test-CPrivateKeyPermission` in the `Carbon.Cryptography`
      module.
 
    Pass the path to the item to the `Path` parameter. Pass the user/group name to the `Identity` parameter. Pass the
    permissions to check for to the `Permission` parameter. If the user has all those permissions on that item, the
    function returns `true`. Otherwise it returns `false`.
 
    The `Permissions` attribute should be a list of
    [FileSystemRights](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.security.accesscontrol.filesystemrights.aspx) or
    [RegistryRights](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.security.accesscontrol.registryrights.aspx). These
    commands will show you the values for the appropriate permissions for your object:
 
        [Enum]::GetValues([Security.AccessControl.FileSystemRights])
        [Enum]::GetValues([Security.AccessControl.RegistryRights])
 
    Extra/additional permissions on the item are ignored. To check that the user/group has the exact permissions passed
    to the `Permission` parameter, use the `Strict` switch.
 
    You can also test how the item's permissions are applied and inherited, use the `ApplyTo` and `OnlyApplyToChildren`
    parameters. These match the "Applies to" and "Only apply these permissions to objects and/or containers within this
    container" fields in the Windows Permission user interface. The following table shows how these parameters are
    converted to `[Security.AccesControl.InheritanceFlags]` and `[Security.AccessControl.PropagationFlags]` values:
 
    | ApplyTo | OnlyApplyToChildren | InheritanceFlags | PropagationFlags
    | ------------------------------- | ------------------- | ------------------------------- | ----------------
    | ContainerOnly | false | None | None
    | ContainerSubcontainersAndLeaves | false | ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit | None
    | ContainerAndSubcontainers | false | ContainerInherit | None
    | ContainerAndLeaves | false | ObjectInherit | None
    | SubcontainersAndLeavesOnly | false | ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit | InheritOnly
    | SubcontainersOnly | false | ContainerInherit | InheritOnly
    | LeavesOnly | false | ObjectInherit | InheritOnly
    | ContainerOnly | true | None | None
    | ContainerSubcontainersAndLeaves | true | ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit | NoPropagateInherit
    | ContainerAndSubcontainers | true | ContainerInherit | NoPropagateInherit
    | ContainerAndLeaves | true | ObjectInherit | NoPropagateInherit
    | SubcontainersAndLeavesOnly | true | ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit | NoPropagateInherit, InheritOnly
    | SubcontainersOnly | true | ContainerInherit | NoPropagateInherit, InheritOnly
    | LeavesOnly | true | ObjectInherit | NoPropagateInherit, InheritOnly
 
    By default, inherited permissions are ignored. To check inherited permission, use the `-Inherited` switch.

function Use-CallerPreference
{
    <#
    .SYNOPSIS
    Sets the PowerShell preference variables in a module's function based on the callers preferences.
 
    .DESCRIPTION
    Script module functions do not automatically inherit their caller's variables, including preferences set by common
    parameters. This means if you call a script with switches like `-Verbose` or `-WhatIf`, those that parameter don't
    get passed into any function that belongs to a module.
 
    When used in a module function, `Use-CallerPreference` will grab the value of these common parameters used by the
    function's caller:
 
     * ErrorAction
     * Debug
     * Confirm
     * InformationAction
     * Verbose
     * WarningAction
     * WhatIf
     
    This function should be used in a module's function to grab the caller's preference variables so the caller doesn't
    have to explicitly pass common parameters to the module function.
 
    This function is adapted from the [`Get-CallerPreference` function written by David Wyatt](https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Inherit-Preference-82343b9d).
 
    There is currently a [bug in PowerShell](https://connect.microsoft.com/PowerShell/Feedback/Details/763621) that
    causes an error when `ErrorAction` is implicitly set to `Ignore`. If you use this function, you'll need to add
    explicit `-ErrorAction $ErrorActionPreference` to every `Write-Error` call. Please vote up this issue so it can get
    fixed.
