How can i split openbox `rc.xml` into multiple files?

Question

I don't like big text configuration files. So, i'd like to split my rc.xml file into multiple files:

rc.xml
rc.keyboard.xml
rc.mouse.xml

Why don't you just split it in the files you propose and then just cat them all together?

cat rc-something.xml rc.keyboard.xml rc.mouse.xml > rc.xml

The only problem is that you will need to cat them each time you modify one of the individual files, but that should be trivial..

Unfortunately, this is the only way yet :/ – Miro May 28 '12 at 16:19
