Include Partial Files Functionality about pp HOT 2 CLOSED

A lightweight workaround is using sed, head, tail instead of AsciiDoctor:

• \pp(\sh(sed '1,3d' filename)) removes the first 3 lines of a file and includes it
• \pp(\sh(sed -e '3,5p' -e 'd' filename)) keeps lines 3 to 5
• \pp(\sh(sed -e '/tag1/,/tag2/p' -e 'd' filename)) keeps lines between "tag1" and "tag2" (included)

A builtin macro would be better for portability. I have to find a way to add an optional argument to include and rawinclude. And maybe also src and csv.

I propose to close this issue. There already exist many standard tools to deal with file, there is no need to reimplement them in pp.
