You can include one config file from another by setting the special
`include.path` variable to the name of the file to be included. The

included file is expanded immediately, as if its contents had been
found at the location of the include directive. If the value of the
`include.path` variable is a relative path, the path is considered to be

-found. The value of `include.path` is subject to tilde expansion: `~/`
