Hello There, 

I would like to bind a key to create a log file, with the file name as
the current date, with out going into the console and typing loads of
stuff..

Is there a way in the console to stamp a file name with the date
automatically? 

I think I read it somewhere but forgot what the command was, Doh! short
term memory loss ;)

Console+ has a variable called "stamp" which can do this for you.
You can even specify how you want the output of "stamp" to appear
(ie. time only, date + time, etc).  All up to you.

To create a condump with the value of "stamp" you'd just lower the
console and enter: condump $stamp
