	/// ColoredConsoleAppender appends log events to the standard output stream
	/// or the error output stream using a layout specified by the 
	/// user. It also allows the color of a specific type of message to be set.
	/// </para>
	/// <para>
	/// By default, all output is written to the console's standard output stream.
	/// The <see cref="Target"/> property can be set to direct the output to the
	/// error stream.
	/// </para>
	/// <para>
	/// NOTE: This appender writes directly to the application's attached console
	/// not to the <c>System.Console.Out</c> or <c>System.Console.Error</c> <c>TextWriter</c>.
	/// The <c>System.Console.Out</c> and <c>System.Console.Error</c> streams can be
	/// programmatically redirected (for example NUnit does this to capture program output).
	/// This appender will ignore these redirections because it needs to use Win32
	/// API calls to colorize the output. To respect these redirections the <see cref="ConsoleAppender"/>
	/// must be used.
	/// </para>
	/// <para>
	/// When configuring the colored console appender, mapping should be
	/// specified to map a logging level to a color. For example:
	/// </para>
	/// <code lang="XML" escaped="true">
	/// <mapping>

	/// 	<backColor value="Green" />
	/// </mapping>
	/// </code>
	/// <para>
	/// The Level is the standard log4net logging level and ForeColor and BackColor can be any

				// that I can write out a the first call to WriteConsoleW
				// is only 30,704 chars.
				//
				// Unlike the WriteFile API the WriteConsoleW method does not 
				// seem to be able to partially write out from the input buffer.
				// It does have a lpNumberOfCharsWritten parameter, but this is
				// either the length of the input buffer if any output was written,
				// or 0 when an error occurs.
				//
				// All results above were observed on Windows XP SP1 running
				// .NET runtime 1.1 SP1.

				// Old call to WriteConsoleW:
				//
				// WriteConsoleW(
				//     consoleHandle,
				//     strLoggingMessage,
				//     (UInt32)strLoggingMessage.Length,
				//     out (UInt32)ignoreWrittenCount,
				//     IntPtr.Zero);
				//
				// Instead of calling WriteConsoleW we use WriteFile which 
				// handles large buffers correctly. Because WriteFile does not
				// handle the codepage conversion as WriteConsoleW does we 
				// need to use a System.IO.StreamWriter with the appropriate
				// Encoding. The WriteFile calls are wrapped up in the
				// System.IO.__ConsoleStream internal class obtained through
				// the System.Console.OpenStandardOutput method.
				//
				// See the ActivateOptions method below for the code that
				// retrieves and wraps the stream.


				// The windows console uses ScrollConsoleScreenBuffer internally to
				// scroll the console buffer when the display buffer of the console
				// has been used up. ScrollConsoleScreenBuffer fills the area uncovered
				// by moving the current content with the background color 
				// currently specified on the console. This means that it fills the
				// whole line in front of the cursor position with the current 
				// background color.
				// This causes an issue when writing out text with a non default
				// background color. For example; We write a message with a Blue
				// background color and the scrollable area of the console is full.
				// When we write the newline at the end of the message the console
				// needs to scroll the buffer to make space available for the new line.
				// The ScrollConsoleScreenBuffer internals will fill the newly created
				// space with the current background color: Blue.
				// We then change the console color back to default (White text on a
				// Black background). We write some text to the console, the text is
				// written correctly in White with a Black background, however the
				// remainder of the line still has a Blue background.
				// 
				// This causes a disjointed appearance to the output where the background
				// colors change.
				//
				// This can be remedied by restoring the console colors before causing
				// the buffer to scroll, i.e. before writing the last newline. This does
				// assume that the rendered message will end with a newline.
				//
				// Therefore we identify a trailing newline in the message and don't
				// write this to the output, then we restore the console color and write
				// a newline. Note that we must AutoFlush before we restore the console
				// color otherwise we will have no effect.
				//
				// There will still be a slight artefact for the last line of the message
				// will have the background extended to the end of the line, however this
				// is unlikely to cause any user issues.
				//
				// Note that none of the above is visible while the console buffer is scrollable
				// within the console window viewport, the effects only arise when the actual
				// buffer is full and needs to be scrolled.
