Can Document Links Become Full Text?

Question

Confusing title, I'm sorry! I'm new to markdown in general, so I'm still trying to figure some things out.

I use iA Writer to write my documents. It has a feature called "content blocks" which can do different things. One of those things is that if I drag a file into a document, it creates a link to that document. Then, when I go to preview the file, it appends each of those links to the document so that they are the document itself, not a link.

So, in that screen shot, if I preview the text itself (which is on the right side) instead of those links showing up like that, it appends each of those text files right after another.

In that screenshot above, for example, Chapter 1.txt ends, Chapter 2.txt begins, and there's a seamless continuity between them.

Does Marked have the ability to translate that so that it does it too?

Marked can "transclue" documents (include one document in another) using a variety of syntaxes, including an iA-compatible one.

The problem I'm having now is that I'm getting an error saying that the format is urecognized.

This is what the text of the markdown file it is reading says:

editor

iA Writer puts the outline around it, it's one of their content blocks, but the text I write to create it is just what it shows. So Marked 3 was able to 2 of the 5.

And here's the files sitting in their folder. They're all .txt files.

files

I included the path at the bottom, in case it's useful. Before I changed to filenames to be unique (there was a 'Chapter 1' in two different folders, for instance, and I thought maybe that was the problem) it would only load the first file.
