Erhm, another case of readthedocs... Thanks for the shove! For
reference, I got it to work using a simple let like so:

--8---cut here---start-8---
(defun import-to-org-from-files (path pattern progmode)
(mapcar #'(lambda (filepath)
(progn
  (insert (format
   \n#+name: %s\n (file-name-nondirectory
 (file-name-sans-extension
  filepath
  (insert (format #+begin_src %s :eval no\n progmode))
  (let ((res (insert-file-contents filepath)))
(forward-char (second res)))
  (insert \n#+end_src\n))
)
(directory-files path t pattern)))
--8---cut here---end---8---

much obliged,
Michael

Hi Michael,

 Dear org-mode Users and Developers,

 I am trying to write a simple function for importing files to org-mode
 babel code blocks.

 My naive approach was

 --8---cut here---start-8---
 (defun import-to-org-from-files (path pattern progmode)
   (mapcar #'(lambda (filepath)
   (progn
 (insert (format
  \n#+name: %s\n (file-name-nondirectory
(file-name-sans-extension
 filepath
 (insert (format #+begin_src: %s :eval no\n progmode))
 (insert-file-contents filepath)

From the documentation (C-h f insert-file-contents), it says that it
returns list of absolute file name and number of characters but
doesn't move the marker forwards, unlike insert does.  So, I guess you
would have to then move the marker forwards by the number of characters.

 (insert \n#+end_src\n))
   )
   (directory-files path t pattern)))
 --8---cut here---end---8---
