Hi Ross, That's excellent, thanks for jumping in! I've been charged with constructing a Galaxy tool kit for basic microarray data analysis for my group's Galaxy instance, and I looked at your Rgenetics / Rexpression (more the latter of course) as a starting point. I was wondering how the compatibility of your tools and datatypes with plain old galaxy-dist is going these days. I've wound up rewrapping or rewriting some of your tools because they didn't seem to be working out of the box. Minor path problems weren't hard to fix. More major problems had to do with incomplete / broken ways that the Galaxy core handles composite datasets. So I'm wondering if you've kept up active development over the last few months and found good workarounds. (I don't want to hijack this thread, so perhaps a private reply or a new thread makes sense.)

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. Eric - thanks for reminding me to fix that old code! :) 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, 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?
