M4 will work, but it is not exactly the most intuitive tool out there.


A tool that I have written, Template Manager (or Tm for short), is also
able to do file inclusions, and is quite intuitive to use. All you have
to do is:


.include partone.l
.include parttwo.l


and so on.


File inclusion is only a tiny part of Tm's capabilities; you might also
find uses for its other features.


See <http://www.pds.twi.tudelft.nl/~reeuwijk/software/Tm> for further
information.
