What is the proper way to add various text files to any/all $HOME directories on rebuild?

Is it possible to do something similar to home.file.".foo.rc".text without Home Manager?

What's the X?

There's also environment.etc if you are okay with putting them in /etc

environment.etc works for some things, yes. but for programs that don't look there, or if I wanted /etc/foo.rc to be copied to $HOME/foo.rc as a default config; I've not yet been able to work out any way to do it other than using HM
