Support including snippets of files

[holdenk]

I'd really like to be able to include snippets of files like in asciidoctor.

Hi, I'm not familiar with asciidoctor, can you provide an example of how that might look with embedme?

[holdenk]

Totally. So in asciidoctor I can add a tags=blah to the end of an include statement and then when reading in the source file it will look for a line with tag::blah[] and then include all of the text until the line end::blah[]. This makes it really simple to include snippets of files. I've got a post I've done using asciidoctor and Jekyll https://raw.githubusercontent.com/scalingpythonml/scalingpythonml.github.io/master/_posts/2020-11-03-a-first-look-at-dask-on-arm-on-k8s.asciidoc and the generated post is at https://scalingpythonml.com/2020/11/03/a-first-look-at-dask-on-arm-on-k8s.html

Totally understand if it's not part of the vision for embedme, but if it is I'd love to be able to simplify my workflow and stay in markdown using embedme :)
