+# [`dotd`][]

+Generate a file from fragment files in a directory.

+`dotd` is intended to be used to (re-)generate e.g. a configuration file
6
+`config` from files in a corresponding directory `config.d` where separate
7
+people or programs can place configuration fragment files without treading on
8
+each other's toes, when the native configuration language does not support
9
+functionality equivalent to `include config.d/*`. In essence, it is a glorified
10
+`cat config.d/* > config`.
