<timestamp> template substitution for exported files in output devices
5
votes
This suggestion is for an additional template substitution for file exporting. (I first asked about this here: https://forum.world-machine.com/t/output-with-timestamp-as-filename/7176)
What <timestamp> should do is insert the current time when the file is exported. This would help differentiate exports at different times so they do not overwrite each other. (If you want a single exported file, don't use <timestamp>.)
Of course, there's additional questions when implementing this, like "What date-time format should it take?" and other considerations.

Stephen Schmitt AdminThis has been implemented as <increment>, which increments a counter at the spot you've put the tag to ensure a unique export.
