+# Title: Include Array Tag for Jekyll
+# Author: Jason Woodward http://www.woodwardjd.com
+# Description: Import files on your filesystem as specified in a configuration variable in _config.yml.  Mostly cribbed from Jekyll's include tag.
+# Syntax: {% include_array variable_name_from_config.yml %}
+#
+# Example 1:
+# {% include_array asides  %}
+#
+# _config.yml snippet:
+# asides: [asides/twitter.html, asides/custom/my_picture.html]
+#
