A feature that I like in Installshield and Wise which Wix doesn't directly
support is wildcard population of directories.
Here is source for a wix preprocessor we use as part of our build process
(run just prior to candle):
http://download.yousendit.com/706B8A2A4335438C
usage is as follows:
WixWildCardPreProcessor.exe MsiContentBaseDir wixInFile
wixOutFile
Example syntax (pulls all files in relative dir "x" into wix structure):
<Directory Id="dirX" Name="X">
<Component Id="compX"
Guid="{97CB7E81-963C-41ad-8D5A-DF1DE380AB4A}">
<!-- [WILDCARD Source='x'] -->
</Component>
</Directory>
