James,

In XSLT1 is there a fairly straight-forward way of reading in a
non-XML file and then sending it as part of the output?

No, there isn't.



In your case, is there anything wrong with an entity reference? (Need 
something you can parameterize?) Depending on your operating 
environment, there might be some other way requiring no programming 
(xinclude?), but then again maybe not.



Cheers,
Wendell
