Put your cursor at the bottom of the file, and press [SPACE with B], [CONTROL with B] for the Block Commands Menu, then I for "Insert File". Follow the procedure you outlined in this e-mail. Note that, for this command, the first view of files you are presented with is the list of text documents, so to see all files, you will have to press [SPACE with X], [READ with X] to get to that view. At the "File name?" prompt, you would press SPACE once to get the list of text documents, and from the "List of text documents" prompt, you would press the [SPACE with X], [READ with X] command until you got the "List of all files" view.
