Currently Ekos allows incorporating the filter, exposure time, and time stamp into the output file during a sequence.
I would find having the option to have the camera temperature included would be useful, and perhaps there is other data people would like to include.
Adding these options to the current UI would make it more cluttered and also too tall for many laptop screens.
I've used several capture programs that allow the specification for the output filename during capture using a format language usually using '%' syntax.
Something like:
M13_%et_%fi_%ts_%ct-%zi
where
%et exposure time (secs)
%fi filter
%ts time stamp
%ct camera temperature
%zi file index with leading zeros
It could be extended obviously - this is just a simple example.
We could continue to use the "Prefix" area to store the filename template.
I'm interested in working on this feature but would like to see what people think.
