<p>I don't think there's any file-reading facility in the .geo scripting language, so I do this kind of thing with an external script, having used AWK and Python for the purpose. I find this works quite well, as, especially with Python, I can really tailor the .geo code generation to my application.</p>
<p>There has been some mention on this list of the .geo scripting language's eventually being replaced with Python, but I'm not sure what stage that's at.<br></p>
