RFE: allow comments and #include "file" in the .txt and _out.txt files
Calculates income tax form entries, helps do your taxes.

OTS does not need any comments in its input or output files for its own use, but people may want to be able to add comments to the .txt or _out.txt files. Off the top of my head:
sh scripts use '#' to EOL.
INF/asm files use ';' to EOL.
C++/Java uses "//" to EOL.
"/" and "/" for multi-line comments.
I personally prefer at least the '#' to EOL and optionally some kind of multi-line comment method.
Something like \"#include "file"\" might also be helpful if I need to repeatedly add stuff to _out.txt files at specific lines,
You can add comments in your Input files (.txt) with the squigley brackets {}.
Starting with version 16.03, you can now add comments in your output files (_out.txt) with the exclamation mark. Any line beginning with ! will be ignored by the PDF generator.
Good ideas. Will be looking to add a #include operator in a subsequent version. But maybe the need for it is eclipsed by the new MarkupPDF command that can be maintained in your Input (.txt) files.
Thanks for your suggestions!
