[smokeping-users] Any way to 'include' another file in the config?

Thanks to the several folks who pointed out my glaring lack of RTFM!
I've been using Smokeping for a number of years now - but TOTALLY missed the @include and @define right at the top of the General Syntax section of the web page!

SmokePing certainly supports @includes - see http://oss.oetiker.ch/smokeping/doc/smokeping_config.en.html#IGENERAL_SYNTAX

I use this feature to break my target configs into logical chunks, even using nested @includes.  I believe you could do it as you suggest above, with the main config differentiated; another alternative, and depending on how you manage your distributed configs, is to keep the main config the same, with the variable items pulled in via @includes.  Six of one...

Cheers,
