$include is a QC command available in all Source Source games. It's used to insert the contents of another .qc (or .qci, for clarity) file as though they were part of the parent file.

Note.pngNote:The new QC is always loaded relative to the current QC's directory - it is not affected by $pushd or $cd!
Tip.pngTip:Compiled MDL files can also be included with $includemodel.

Example

When the included file is in the same folder as the current one: 

$include "ragdoll.qci"
