Using a captured variable in the filenames of a split files filter?

[dfhtextpipe]

Help for the Split files filter indicates that the split filenames can make use of @macro

You can insert macros by preceding their name with @

Is it also feasible to make use of a captured variable in the split filename specifier?

Best regards,

Captured variables and macros share the same namespace, so yes.

Capture text to a variable often requires the use of Restrict to each line in turn.

Would this cause any problems for the Split files filter?
