NAME

includ - file inclusion preprocessor



SYNOPSIS

includ [file] ...



DESCRIPTION

Includ copies the named files to the standard output, except that any
line that begins with

               include file

or

               include "file"

is replaced by the entire contents
of file.
If no files are given, or '-' is specified, includ reads its standard
input.

An included file may contain further includes.
However,
there is a (system-dependent) limit to the nesting of included files.

DIAGNOSTICS

includes nested too deeply


The depth of included files allowed was exceeded.
The depth is set by the NFILES definitions in the source code
and is dependent upon the maximum number of opened files allowed
on the particular system.


name: can't include


The named file could not be opened; processing continues.
