$ htmlprocessor file-to-process.html -o processed/file.html --comment-marker processList option
Create a list of files that were replaced and use that list to streamline the build process.
Note: This new option does not affect in any way the previous existing functionality (i.e. it's backward compatible).

.The file "wrk/replacement.list" will contain something like this:
file-to-process.html:js/bower_components/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css
file-to-process.html:content/bootstrap-responsive.min.css
file-to-process.html:content/styles.css
file-to-process.html:content/myApplicationStyles.css
file-to-process.html:js/bower_components/jquery/dist/jquery.js
file-to-process.html:js/bower_components/angular/angular.js
file-to-process.html:js/bower_components/angular-route/angular-route.js
file-to-process.html:app/app.js
file-to-process.html:app/filters/filters.js
file-to-process.html:app/controllers/applications.jsAnd you can use these commands to concatenate and eventually minify without having to update the build to tell it where it should pickup each files. Also, in this way it orders the global file content in the same manner as your individual includes originally were.
sh -c "cat `cat wrk/replacement.list | grep '\.js$' | cut -d: -f2` > dist/js/myApplication.js"
sh -c "cat `cat wrk/replacement.list | grep '\.css$' | cut -d: -f2` > dist/css/myApplication.css"If you processed more than a single "html" file, you can change the grep like this:
... | grep 'file-to-process.html:.*\.js$' | ... > dist/js/myApplication.js
... | grep 'other-file-to-process.html:.*\.js$' | ... > dist/js/myApplicationOther.jsThe originating file name is included in the list file for that very purpose.
