Summary of the new feature

Since I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 on my company laptop I noticed the colors of the standalone PowerShell console change as you type stuff in depending on what you are typing which is a nice feature. PowerShell Integrated Console is in all plain white, and the only color is red if my script runs and throws an error. I reviewed the PSreadline stuff and that does not seem to apply here, but I could be using wrong? I am currently using "Dark+ (default dark)" theme.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

The highlighting is indeed provided by https://github.com/lzybkr/PSReadLine.

That's tracked by #535.

PSReadLine functionality is currently available in the extension by installing the preview version, available as a separate VSCode extension called powershell-preview. If you find that in the marketplace, it should have all the instructions in the README.
