I just added a flag to datacat to provide a facility that I wrote for
the Athena folks a while back (datacat is the ATK datastream version of
cat). 

When given the -i flag, datacat will now search through the files it is
passed for lines of the form

@include(filename)

Datacat -i will interpret all of the instances of this and include the
named files in its output.

The -I flag does the same as the -i flag, except that it will also look
for @include lines in the included files themselves.

This may be of use to you in composing large documents out of small
pieces.  If Susan hasn't cut the patch 6 tape yet, I will try and get
this change included.
