predefined variables

Are there any predefined variables that can be used in the snort configuration file (ie, %m-%d-%y for month-date-year)? Here's the problem I'm having: I have "output log_tcpdump: /var/log/snort/snort_log.tcpdump" specified in my configuration file. Whenever snort gets restarted, it stops logging to the file because the file already exists. I'd like to be able to have it name the file something like "%m-%d-%y_snort_log.tcpdump". I know if I don't pass any options to "output log_tcpdump" it'll do something similiar to this, but I was wondering if there was any way to have more control over it... Thanks much, Nate -- Nathan W.
