To insert the contents of a file before or after the current line, use the
get command. Open the SlickEdit command line (press
Esc or click in the message area), type
get file (where
file is the name of the file you want to insert), then press
Enter. To browse for a file to insert, use
File > Insert a File (or the
gui_insert_file command) instead.
Bonus Tip: By default, the file is inserted after the current line. The insert location is based on the
Line insert style setting on the
More tab of the General Options dialog (
Tools > Options > General). Note that this setting is also controlled by the
def_line_insert configuration variable (set to
A for After or
B for Before).
For more information about
get, use the Help index (
Help > Index). For information about setting config variables, see the Did You Know tip called
Set Config Variables.
