Abstract

inccat {include and concatenate) takes, as input, a list of one or more input files, and concatenates them to an output file. Optionally, one or more of the input files may contain one or more lines beginning with a user-specified prefix and continuing with a list of valid file names belonging to additional input files, and each such line is replaced in the output file by the contents of these files. These additional input files can contain prefixed lines with lists of further additional input files, which are also included in the same way.
