-"Cooked Mode" -- in which the Windows console subsystem handles all the
-keypresses, F7 menus, and other input. When you press Enter or Tab, Windows
-PowerShell gets the text that you have typed up to that point. There is no way
-for it to know that you pressed Ctrl-R, Ctrl-A, Ctrl-E, or any other keys
