reexport

Experimental utility to automate reexporting TypeScript in index.ts files. Primary target is TypeScript but it should work for any language with // comments.

Insert comment instructions // @reexport glob/pattern/*.tsx in place where you want to reexport such files and this utility will reexport all matching files.
