+-Copy-LongChildItem
+ -DestinationType
+    -Specify whether the destination is a file or a folder. If this parameter is not specified the destination type is  inferred by checking whether the destination item has an extension or not.
+    If the destination has an extension then we assume it is a file and folder if not. As you can tell this is not always correct because there can be folders with a period in them which can then be incorrectly inferred as a file.
+    Hence it is important to specify this parameter to get accurate results.
+-Get-LongDirectorySize
+    -Changed output object from a hashtable to custom PSOBJECT.
+    -Unit
+        -Specify the unit type for folder size : ('KB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB', 'PB', 'Bytes' )
+    -IncludeSubfolder
+        -Specify this parameter to list the sizes of the subfolders including the parent
+
+    Feature Requests:
+        Issue 9 - List Size of all sub directories in Get-LongDirectorySize
+
+    Fixed Issues:
+        Issue 3 - Copy-LongItem over the top of an existing file
+        Issue 4 - Copy-LongItem when destination is a folder path
+        Issue 6 - You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression
+

         v2.0.0.0
         - Major Release with numerous improvements and enhancements
         - Module is now compatible with PS v3

     This command copies the drivers.txt file to the C:\temp\folder1 directory. 'folder1' is created if it dosent exist.

     This command copies the contents of the C:\Logfiles directory recursively to the C:\temp\newLogs directory. It creates the \newLogs subdirectory if it does not already exist.

+
+Copy-LongItem @params
+
+We use "splatting" to pass the parameters as a table to copy-longitem.  file 'file-01.txt' is copied to destination directory 'destination.dir1'. The destination directory 'destination.dir1' will be created if it dosent already exist.
+
+Note: The destination "destination.dir1" is a folder containing a period in its name and hence we also specify the "destinationtype" parameter.
+If  destinationtype parameter is not specified the destination would be treated as a file.
