Hi Timothy, if by "customize the name of the output" you mean "display a string of my choice as the new history item display name" then yes.
Post execution hooks are not needed - there's a much cleaner way - eg given a form field "usersuppliedlabel", something like
<outputs>
<data format="foo" name="output" label="$usersuppliedlabel">
...
The label becomes the history item display name if that helps?

Hi Timothy,
Check out tools/rgenetics/rgLDIndep.xml and the associated tools/rgenetics/rgLDIndep_code.py for an example of how to change the name of your output data.
Best,
Eric

Subject: [galaxy-dev] Name your own tool's output?
Hi,
I thought I had already asked this question a while ago, but I can't find it so I guess I haven't.
When porting my own tool, is there anyway to customize the name of the output?
Timothy
