Description

Hi there,

I have a quarto book project. To keep the versions I created, I'd like to append the current date to my generated PDFs.

I know that I can set a file name with the output-file option. Is there a way to make this dynamic?

Thanks for your input!

You could use a post render script that rename the output maybe after each render.
