## How It Works ## How It Works
The `~/.bashrc` iterates over all files in `~/.bash.d/` and sources each one that has the **executable bit** set. Non-executable files are silently skipped, which provides a simple way to temporarily disable a configuration (just `chmod -x` the file). Add the following to the end of your `~/.bashrc`:
```bash
for file in $HOME/.bash.d/*; do
[[ -x $file ]] && source $file
done
```
This iterates over all files in `~/.bash.d/` and sources each one that has the **executable bit** set. Non-executable files are silently skipped, which provides a simple way to temporarily disable a configuration (just `chmod -x` the file).
Files are sourced in **lexicographic order**, so numeric prefixes control the load sequence. This matters because later files may depend on functions or variables defined by earlier ones.
