First, thanks for all the work you've all done to make AIJ such a useful tool.
For my data analysis for CBA data, I like to have text files in the format:
HJD Mag Mag_Err Airmass JD_UTC OBSCODE Star_Name
where OBSCODE is the AAVSO observer code, and Star_Name is for example "AM CVn"
It would be very helpful if AIJ could have option in "Save Data Subset to File" for text string entries, e.g., "Comment 1", "Comment 2", etc. I only need 2, but it might be useful to have 5.
I have no idea how difficult this would be to implement, and I don't know Java so can't volunteer to take it on myself.
I can add these columns with a simple Perl or Python script after the fact, but it would be a time saver if this was an option.
Cheers,
Matt Wood
