      Hi, i'm new in this forum and english is not my native language, so i hope i can explain my problem.

      I'm editing my gamelists manually because of problems reaching scraping websites.

      Many games have clones or are similar to other games. Therefore i'm looking for a method
      to include external textfiles in the "<desc>"-tag. I tried the "<include>"- and "xi:include"-tags
      but got no valid result. I also tried to change the external filetype from "txt" to "xml" but this
      also did not work.

      Any idea?

      Thanks for every response.

        This feature is not supported, ES doesn't do any XML pre-processing, it just reads the node value as is.
