I asked a similar question in this thread http://lists.bx.psu.edu/pipermail/galaxy-dev/2011-January/004183.html, I agree it would be nice to have a wiki page showing all the attributes available to tool elements.

I realise now this question was also posted to the dev list, which is probably a better place to discuss it.

Dear all,
I was wondering if there is a place within the Galaxy content (a config,
an
xml file) that gives me some handles on how to address attributes of data input.
For example, I can get the 'file_name' of data input, by addressing this attr as 'input.file_name', and for example, the original name of the data file can be addressed with 'input.name'.
Anyone any clues where I can find this info?

Some are given in examples on the main tool XML doc page, https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/wiki/ToolConfigSyntax
Others I've noticed by looking at the provided XML wrappers, and/or email list questions. For example, .ext or .extension gives the Galaxy file type (e.g. fasta).
Other than that, I guess you can always read the code - but I agree that a document describing this would be nice to have.
