Auto-naming GPX files
« on: January 22, 2009, 10:26:37 AM »
The curent default is yyyy-mm-dd.  I often create two or more tracks per day.  I'd like to see TF adopt the Garmin standard of yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss.   Date and start time of track.  (local time)

Or better yet, a user definable default using a combination of text and data formats to include data taken from the file such as start time or lat/lon, elevation, length, i.e. any of the fields already available in the file list.

Cryptic examples:
Bike_%StartYYYY_MM_dd_Bike_%StartHHMM.gpx
      to get Bike_2009_January_30_13-21.gpx
and so on

Hike_YYYY_MM_%StartHH:MM.gpx
Run_YY_M_%Start_HH:MM.gpx

I think you should get the idea.
