Hi
I would like to import all files in a directory into an org document,
and each file should be in one source block, so that tangling the
document, will result in all files created.
My reasoning: I am using org-mode to keep track of installations on my
machine (apt-get as well as other installs) to make it easier to
re-install a new version of the Linux when necessary.
Now apart from the installation commands, I also have to keep track of
the installation sources. I was thinking of having them in the document,
where each source (i.e. each file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/.) has it's
own source block, so that I can easily change the Ubuntu version and
tangle the document to obtain the new sources.
Now I am lazy, and adding each file manually is prone to errors
(i.e. forgetting one). Therefore my question:
Is there a way of importing all files in a directory
(/etc/apt/sources/list.d/) into an org document, with each being in a
separate code block?
Thanks,
Rainer

Maybe this?:
for i in `find . -maxdepth 1 -type f`; do
echo "#+BEGIN_SRC :tangle /this/dir/${i}" >> afile.org
cat "${i}" >> afile.org
echo "#+END_SRC\n" >> afile.org
done
(this kind of reply is becoming a theme of mine)
