Enable the use of #region & #endregion keywords in reabank #25

First of all, congrats for this AWESOME tool, I'm so exited about it, it's the future of articulation switching. There is not limit to switch to reaper for me now. Thanks a lot for your hard work! I tried without too much hope to encapsulate different banks with #region & #endregion markers to make it a lot easier to look around large reabank files in IDE editors by folding those regions. This causes the main script to crash. Is there any way the main script can ignore those statements? Maybe just ignoring lines starting with "#" or something.

Thank you again!

Thanks for the kind words Maxime. Unfortunately Reabank files ultimately feed into Reaper, and special markers (such as those used by Reaticulate itself) need to start with a comment (a hash #), otherwise I imagine Reaper's behavior would be undefined in the face of a syntactically invalid reabank file.

I'm hoping this may be moot anyway, since eventually all the bank stuff will be editable by the GUI and users shouldn't need to hand-edit reabank files anymore. Could we say that issue #5 (said GUI) renders this feature request unnecessary?

Thanks for the idea, but I'm going to close this one because I think the GUI editor is the real solution here. :)
