Hello. As a beginning Information Science student, I am sure I will eventually learn the Citation Style Language (CSL) and be able to help others with these same tasks. But until such time, it would save me tons of time (thus leading to me learning CSL sooner) if I could quickly rename my downloaded research papers according to my preferred naming scheme. I have looked at ZotFile and it does not do what I want. In addition, it does not provide any means to choose between different file naming schemes for different categories of documents. So, I just figured I would create a publication style that fits my needs and paste that from the clipboard to rename my files. However, I looked at CSL and it is insanely convoluted. I do not have time to learn all that right now.

So, I am asking if someone who knows CSL can please create a style for me.

Here is my preferred naming scheme (Items in angle brackets are variables. Items not in angle brackets are verbatum text that I want there):

; --; pp. ;

;

As you can see, this style is designed to sort the articles by most broad information to the most specific information.

Notes:
* If a value in the date is not known, I would like that segment to be replaced by zeros.

Thanks
