Put this in a file:

    Var check: __SOME_VARIABLE__<br>
    Tag check: [time]%Y[/time]<br>
    Perl check: [calc] return 'Hello world'; [/calc]<br>

Then call with [include].  You should find that it all works.  If it
doesn't then perhaps there's something wrong with the contents of your
file.

You shouldn't be using interpolate=1 with [include], by the way.
