On Unix you could use a Perl script to do this, something like
DATE_TAG = `perl -e'@t=localtime;\
print sprintf("%2d%4d",$t[4]+1,$t[5]+1900);'`
./analog +O$DATE_TAG.html
On non-Unix platforms this wouldn't be as easy. You could install Perl and
write a full Perl script or there may be other scripting options (VBScript
and Window Scripting Host?). In anycase, Analog can only insert the current
date in and output filename.
