I think I begin to understand. What you want has absolutely nothing to do with .cf, I believe: If you say \X'ps: file foo' grops produces BEGIN <contents of foo> END However, you want to insert some stuff right after `BEGIN' and directly before `END', right? BEGIN <hook before foo> <contents of foo> <hook after foo> END This could be implemented via \Y, using the yet-to-be-implemented grops specials ps: before-file ps: after-file Werner
