1 # hosts-gen
2
3 This is a simple framework to create your hosts file from many files in
4 a hosts.d folder. It is usefull especially when you have a frequently
5 updated part of the hosts file, like a filter list for spam and it
6 should be integrated into the main hosts file without any manual inter‐
7 vention.
8
9 There is an »examples« folder which shows sources for various filter
10 lists.
11
12 ## Directory Structure
13
14 The hosts parts are by default stored in /etc/hosts.d and will be read
15 according to their standard sort order in ls(1). The file names have the
16 form of ’^[0‐9]*‐[^ ]’ (see the etc/hosts.d dir for the standard header
17 and the localhost). Files can be easily excluded from being run by re‐
18 moving the numbers in front of their name.
