Hello,

  typical usage scenarios could be:

  1) write a book of many chapters, one main.org file
     and many second-level .org files, one file per chapter,
     and you don't want to manually write all the #INCLUDEs:

      main.org
	chapter01-the-intro.org
	chapter02-another-day-another-story.org
	chapter03-bad-day-emacs-froze-again.org
	...
	chapter47-end.org

  2) write some reference manual (example: my_c_manual.org)
     that includes many .org files, every one of them shows usage
     and examples of a language keyword or library function:

      my_reference_manual.org
	abs.org
	...
	printf.org
	strcpy.org

  Thanks to everyone for whatever feedback, kindest regards.

  Andrea
