@INCLUDE filespec

filespec - A string specifying the name of a file, where the specification follows the rules of the operating system being used

Use

@INCLUDE causes the contents of the file identified by the file specification to be placed in the ABEL source file. The inclusion will begin at the location of the @INCLUDE directive. The file specification can include an explicit drive or path specification that indicates where the file is to be found. If no drive or path specification is given, the file is expected to be on either the default drive or path.
