[SOLVED] source all files in a directory from .bash_profile

Issue

I need to allow several applications to append to a system variable ($PYTHONPATH in this case). I'm thinking of designating a directory where each app can add a module (e.g. .bash_profile_modulename). Tried something like this in ~/.bash_profile:

find /home/mike/ -name ".bash_profile_*" | while read FILE; do
source "$FILE"
done;

but it doesn't appear to work.

Solution

Wouldn't

 for f in ~/.bash_profile_*; do source $f; done

be sufficient?

Edit: Extra layer of ls ~/.bash_* simplified to direct bash globbing.
