gcoderenamer

prototype script to extract PrusaSlicer/Slic3r PE timing information from a gcode file and rename that gcode file with the timing info

could be extended to grab other metadata from in the gcode file.

Note that PrusaSlicer/Slic3r PE as of 1.42 (alpha) supports new template variables in the output filename which let you do this right from the start.

example run:

% ./gcoderenamer.py -n ./gcode/*
(dry run) Would Rename:
  ./gcode/test.gcode
  ./gcode/test.4h8m40s.gcode
(dry run) Would Rename:
  ./gcode/test.gcode
  ./gcode/test.4h8m40s.gcode
