## Description
*RVLq* is a command-line tool which replaces tags, mostly in a file, with text, content of a file or the output of a command.

A source file, named `Source.txt`, which contains tags, delimited by `$`:
```text

Text 4: $text4$
Text 1 again followed by text 5: $text1$, $text5$
File content: $file$

```
The tag file, named `Tags.txt`, containing the definition of the tags in above file:
```text

but displayed on one line thanks to the '\\' before the newline
# A comment.
text3 Text on one line in the tags file,\nbut displayed on 2 lines thanks to '\\n'
text4 Text with a tabulation here:>\t< thanks to '\\t'
text5 and another simple texte
file %File.txt
command @echo Text issued by the echo command
```
Another file, named `File.txt`, which is referenced in above file:
