Doable!
I did it by using the #include directive to include files, each
containing a template. The template should be located on a separate path
from Argus's default directory or it will be pulled in on the top level.
PS:
I.M.O. it might be well worth scripting it anyway - in my experience it
quickly becomes very tedious and boring work to coordinate Argus and
Cacti configurations with what happens in DNS.
