Hi Org users,

  I wrote a Babel block to generate the #+INCLUDE statements
for all Org files of a directory.

  Nothing spectacular: not recursive through directories,
only .org files ... but I wanted to share it, just in case
someone finds it helpful. Source code and usage example
are available here:

https://github.com/thesoftwarebin/the-emacs-software-bin/tree/master/include-all-org-files

(GitHub renders Org files as html, so be sure to click the "Raw" button
in order to see #+BEGIN_SRC, #+END_SRC and #+COMMENTS)

  Opinions, corrections and enhancements are of course
more than welcome. Kindest regards,

  Andrea

May you please discuss your use case that motivated this code?

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

sorry for the typo, I meant:

  my_c_manual.org
    abs.org
    ...
    printf.org
    strcpy.org

Hello Org users,

  just in case you try to visit the link of that script
for multiple #+INCLUDE files: I renamed it into

https://github.com/thesoftwarebin/the-emacs-software-bin/tree/master/include-many-files

because now the user can specify inclusion of files
with any extension (see example/main.org).

Kindest regards,

  Andrea
