- Options for importing plain text files
The plain text importer populates the module with objects
that are created from the contents of a plain text file. The structure
of the object hierarchy and the values of the object attributes are
determined by the structure and content of the file. You can use the
importer to populate an empty module, or to extend a populated module.
If you extend a populated module, the imported file is placed after
the current object.
