[WM] looking for an EASY way to generate some output

[Matt Okeson-Harlow]

ok, i have looked through the documentation and tried to look the the
mailing list archives, and looked at the sources on webmake.taint.org...

and i cannot get this to work the way i think it should.

here is the situation, i have a single dir with text in it

<contents src="files" name="*.txt" format="text/et" listname="all_files">

now, here is my problem, i want to do something like:

<for name=page values="${all_files}">
 <out name="${page}" file="${page}.html">${out_helper}</out>
</for>

but, this does not work...
i did notice the perl code that looks to be generating a new all_files
listing... but it did not make a whole lot of sense to me...

if anyone could provide a SIMPLE way to generate a file listing, that
would be great!

i know i will still have to link the actuall content manually, that is
fine for now, i just want the output to be automatically created.
