insert-file in editor<%>

Inserts the content of a file or port into the editor (at the current selection position in text% editors). The result is #t; if an error occurs, an exception is raised.

The content of an editor can be changed by the system in response to other method calls, and such changes do not go through this method; use on-insert in text% or on-insert in pasteboard% to monitor content additions changes.
