``includeInputs`` When ``true`` any input files matching an output file glob pattern are included.
================== =====================

The parenthesis are optional for input and output qualifiers, but when you want to set an additional option and there
is more than one input or output qualifier, you must use parenthesis so that Nextflow knows what qualifier you're
referring to.

One example with a single output qualifier::

process foo {
output:
path 'result.txt', hidden: true

'''
echo 'another new line' >> result.txt
'''
}

Another example with multiple output qualifiers::

process foo {
output:
tuple path('last_result.txt'), path('result.txt', hidden: true)

'''
echo 'another new line' >> result.txt
echo 'another new line' > last_result.txt
'''
}


Multiple output files
