.include (or multiple source files)

[alexander-bauer]

I'm using das exclusively to assemble my work-in-progress kernel and OS, and have found that it's somewhat inconvenient to use a script to collect all of the source files together before assembling. This difficulty could be overcome by a .include directive, or the ability to specify multiple source files in the call to das. Would this be possible?

Thanks for opening this issue. Knowing people are actually using das motivates me and directs my priorities :)
There's good news and bad new on includes:

The bad news is, I'm emigrating at the end of this month and busy with that, so don't expect to have time to work on das until July.

The good news is, I have a skeleton preprocessor partly working in a local branch already and includes are the first thing I plan to implement. Then macros and stuff.

Since I know you want includes, I'll concentrate on getting those working, and do a release and update this issue when they are. By the way, I'm "reserving" the ability to give das multiple source files on the command line, as I plan to use that later for separate assembly units with linking, relocation, and local symbol namespaces. I don't want to do a naive "cat them all together" approach now and break it later.
