+# The file plugin loads files from a directory and defines them as
+# variables for use in your stories. Ie: if you have a file named 
+# "foo", then the variable $file::foo will be set to the contents
+# of the file "foo" and will be substituted in your stories and such.
+# Files are loaded from $plugin_dir/filedata
+
+package file;
+
+my $datadir;
+
+# Startup - scan filedata dir, read files into variables
+sub start {
+  $datadir = $blosxom::datadir . "/filedata";
+
+  if ( $datadir and opendir D, $datadir ) {
+    foreach my $f (readdir D) {
+      next unless -f "$datadir/$f";
+      open F, "$datadir/$f";
+      $$f = join('', <F>);
