Anyway, as Eric said it may be better to make [include] more intelligent. What about making it take two arguments, one specifying the file name and the other the format? E.g.
[include somefile.xml xml] [include code.cpp c++] [include foo.qbk quickbook]
What about including only *part* of a file? i.e. marking a file with with comments with something like
--- in file source.cpp --- ... // quickbook:begin("section name") ... // quickbook:end("section name") ... --------
[include source.cpp C++ "section name"] would include only that part of the file.
Useful if you want to pull for example only a function prototype, or a single class declaration...
Yes. These are what I had in mind when I asked Julio if he's interested to do more coding. Eric and Giovanni summed it all up. There was something like this before but it got out of sync with the code and got lost. I do not even recall now who wrote it.
