Comments exporter
=================

[](#comments-exporter)

**Comments exporter** is a console script that can export code comments from multiple source files to a csv file. This file can be used to perform bulk proofreading and editing over code comments. After that, comments can be imported back with the same script.

Script supports all types of C-like comments, such as:

```
// This one.
/* This one. */
/**
 * And this one.
 */
```
