how to change the destination filename extension in console

[fuddl]

is there a way to change the default filename extension from .html to lets say .tpl.php?

At the moment, the easiest way is probably to use the JavaScript api and write a node.js script like:

var fs = require('fs');
var jade = require('jade');

fs.writeFileSync(__dirname + '/view.tpl.php', jade.renderFile(__dirname + '/view.jade'));

#1453 suggests adding an option to the command line, which sounds like a reasonable idea, but that hasn't been merged yet.

thank you. That sounds perfect
