Yes, it's not listed with the other macros via the template editor
menus.
What %QINCLUDE does is to place the contents of a quick template in
another template.
My TBUDL signature is a quick template with the handle name 'tbudl'
The introductory line to this message to you was also created with a quick
template with handle name 'intro'.
The text that's quoted from your message was done using another quick
template who's handle name is 'quote'.
Now look at my reply template for this list:
- ---------start template------
%QINCLUDE="intro"
%CURSOR%QUOTESTYLE="I"%QINCLUDE="quote"
- --
%QINCLUDE="tbudl"
%SINGLERE
%TO=""%TO="%OFROMNAME on TB!UDL <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
- --------reply template-------
You see? I can insert quick templates with the use of the %QINCLUDE
macro. If I didn't have the QINCLUDE macro to use, this is how my reply
template would appear.
- -------start template-------
On%SETPATTREGEXP="(?m-s)Date\:\s*?((.*?[\d]{4})\s*?([\d]{0,2}\:[\d]{0,2}\:[\d]{0,2})\s*?(.*))"%REGEXPMATCH="%HEADERS",

See how much more complicated and tedious it would be. Also if I use a
quick template in several locations with the %QINCLUDE macro, editing
the quick template will reflect in all templates I use it.
Have I confused you even more?

Create a new message. Now, place the cursor in the message body area,
anywhere but not adjacent to any other characters and type the handle
name for your signature template above followed by <CTRL><SPaceBar). The
signature in the message should now be changed to the quick template
one.
JR> What is supposed to happen?
The old signature disappears and the new one takes it's place.

That's because you did not have the %ISSIGNATURE macro in the quick
template signature.
