This seems to be borderlining on being unnecessary, in my opinion. A commented
section in package.unmask could work just as easily, and it would likely save
time for the user. "kde-base/kdelibs" is just as easy to find in a sorted,
sectioned file as it is in multiple files:
# GNOME Packages:
[...]
# KDE Packages:
[...]
I think the point is more with a) temporary enabling/disabling of
sections and b) sharing sections. Having multiple files those situations
are a bit easier to handle.
Shouldn't be too hard offhand, basically
if isdir(foo):
for x in listdir(foo):
mylines.extend(grabfile(x))
else:
mylines = grabfile(foo)
