Slack dark mode

This was always a problem. So there 2 methods:

• open Web Slack and apply any dark-mode plugins, this works very well apart you cannot make direct calls
• use Powershell snippet below to enable DarkMode, worked for Windows 10, 3.4.0 64-bit version
  • Execute dARK.ps1 below script. Does not require elevated privilages
  • Restart Slack Ctrl+Q, then start Slack
  • Each update to the app will require to re-run the script
