<p dir="ltr">I might be misunderstanding your requirements but I believe you could just use gcc or your favorite c compiler and use the preprocessor flag on your text files. The preprocessor should be able to work on any file that has #include or #define, not just .c or .h files. </p>

I've been looking for a tool that I can only describe as a text compiler. The basic feature would be the ability to use something like includes within a template file that references external files and compile an output file that would be the amalgam of the text in the template and the text of the referenced files. Have you come across anything that does this? I've turned up at least one candidate, but was hoping for some more ideas. I guess I can code/script something up, but time isn't on my side. Especially if it has been done before.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
