script to insert variable file into another, bit like C's #include
Hi, I want to insert one file into another like this:
file 1:
1
2
3
<!-- #include file="file2" -->
4
5
<!-- #include file="file3" -->
6
with the complete output going to another file. Have seen some solutions to similar problems using sed, but this problem is different because it is unknown at the command line which files will need to be included.
Can this be done with sed or is there something better?
Cheers

HISTORY
The GNU shtool subst command was originally written by Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 2001 for GNU shtool. It was prompted
by the need to have a uniform and convenient patching frontend to sed(1) operations in the OpenPKG package specifications.

shtool(1), sed(1).
