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.

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