Detailed Description

The idea is that this class will be used to read in information from text files created by the "save" function in various annie classes.

When a file is opened, we check that the first non-commented line contains "ANNIE_FILE <ver>" where is the version number. This has been done to allow for future changes to file formats used by ANNIE. All save functions should save in the same format. Current version is 1.0.

Comments in an ANNIE file are given by a '#'. The rest of the line following '#' is ignored. The member functions of this class return values ignoring any and all comments that may have appeared in between.
