* Does asciidoc allow to show code snips marked in an external source file? For example, to show example code snips in Quickbook using [import <file-name>] and then [abc], where //[abc ... //] are used as markers in file-name.

This is the QuickBook feature I would miss. I've used that heavily to ensure that the code embedded in the documentation is code that actually builds and runs, without having to remember to (re-)paste updates into the document source.

The answer is still yes asciidoctor supports that. Not only that.. It supports it in a more modular and flexible way than Quickbook. -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail
