With some little helper bits (top & tail of a file) you can = read any file via include<>.

e.g.

// = read_file_main.scad

include = <read_file_input.txt>

echo(read_file);

echo("_________________");

include = <read_file_vec.txt>

echo(read_file_vec);<= /p>

echo("_________________");

include = <read_file_3vecs.txt>

echo(read_file_3vecs);

 

<read_file_input.txt>

// freeform text needs to be careful with = '"' (make them \") and use '\n' for line = breaks

// need an assignment first part, followed by = data

read_file=3D"

1-no-line-break     &= nbsp;     

2\n

3\n

"; // then terminate the = assignment

 

<read_file_vec.txt>

read_file_vec=3D = [

1,

2,

3,

];

 

<read_file_3vecs.txt>

read_file_3vecs=3D[

[1,2,3],

[4,5,6],

[7,8,9]

];

 

I haven't bothered yet, but a tiny script could top/tail any = file readily.

The freeform text input is a little more work with the '"' = & '\n' newlines.

But in Notepad++ I can replace all '\n\r' with '\\n\n\r' and = '"' with '\\"'.
