Is there a way to have IDA take a folder of executables and produce a bunch of corresponding c files?

IDA is not a decompiler.  If you happen to have the Hex-Rays decompiler plugin for IDA, then you could probably write an IDA scrip and run IDA in batch mode to accomplish something along the lines of what you are asking.

Thanks for the reply cseagle.
That's what I had in mind.
Can anyone help me with some sample code that would do this?

this is what you need to instruct the hexrays decompiler to batch-process your file(s). you could write an external batch/perl/whatever script to list a path's filenames and pass them over to ida/hexrays.
