Include wildcard configuration files
====================================

Lighty doesn't allow wildcarded inclusions of configuration files, but you can do a [little trick](http://redmine.lighttpd.net/issues/show/1221)
using the `include_shell` command:

~~~
include_shell "cat /etc/lighttpd/conf.d/*conf"

# more elegant
include_shell "find /etc/lighttpd/conf.d -maxdepth 1 -name '*.conf' -exec cat {} \;"
~~~
