<p>
It is sometimes convenient to have the score in more than one file. This use is supported by the <span class="emphasis"><em>#include</em></span> facility which is part of the macro system. A line containing the text
<a id="IndexIncludeScore" class="indexterm"></a>
<a id="IndexMultiFileScore" class="indexterm"></a>
</p>
<div class="informalexample">
<pre class="programlisting">
<span class="emphasis"><em>#include</em></span> "filename"</pre>
</div>
<p>
where the character <span class="emphasis"><em>"</em></span> can be replaced by any suitable character. For most uses the double quote symbol will probably be the most convenient. The file name can include a full path.
</p>
<p>
This takes input from the named file until it ends, when input reverts to the previous input. There is currently a limit of 20 on the depth of included files and macros.
</p>
<p>
A suggested use of <span class="emphasis"><em>#include</em></span> would be to define a set of macros which are part of the composer's style. It could also be used to provide repeated sections.
</p>
<div class="informalexample">
<pre class="programlisting">
<span class="stamnt">s</span>
#include :section1:
<span class="comment">;; Repeat that</span>
<span class="stamnt">s</span>
#include :section1:</pre>
</div>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Alternative methods of doing repeats, use the <a class="link" href="r.html" title="r Statement (Repeat Statement)"><em class="citetitle">r statement</em></a>, <a class="link" href="m.html" title="m Statement (Mark Statement)"><em class="citetitle">m statement</em></a>, and <a class="link" href="n.html" title="n Statement"><em class="citetitle">n statement</em></a>.
