Is the perl comment skipped in hugo as well.
I'm pretty sure that perl doesn't skip comments in the "here doc" string.

Yes - the comment flows into the markdown file and when Hugo processes it, it is ignored.

Here's what the yml header looks like in a file:

  Lisp Editing in the 80s - Interlisp SEdit

date: 2017-06-22
readabledate: 2017-06-22
type: bibliography
item_type: motion_picture
authors:

  Thanks to "lispm" on reddit for all the info:

  From what I understand SEdit was developed later than DEdit. SEdit is documented first in the 1987 Lyric release of Interlisp-D, see Appendix B:
  http://bitsavers.trailing-edge.com/pd...
  SEdit is expanded in the virtual machine version of Interlisp-D, called Medley. See the Medley 1.0 release notes, appendix B:
  http://bitsavers.trailing-edge.com/pd...
  Some hints for using SEdit

  If you want to try it out, maybe this contains the editors:

I wanted to make sure it the meaning of the lastmod was clear. Putting it at the bottom and separating it from the dates related to the entry itself, should make it clear this isn't directly related to when the item was initially published.

lastmod: $dateModified
