Summary: Filter substitution points to arbitrary text file

Initial Comment:
Hi there,

this may already be possible although I looked and did not find it.

It would be nice if the s/// substitution pattern accepted a path to a there file where the text to replace the match is pulled from. This would be particularly handy for pulling in HTML code portions that are much longer than a couple of lines.

Cheers,
Alex

Thanks for the suggestion.

A general include directive is already on the TODO list as #102, but it
probably will not cover splitting pcrs commands across multiple files.

I agree that this would be useful, though, and patches to implement it
would be welcome.
