I am so grateful that you took the time to write and publish this to Github. I am a Network Engineer in Las Vegas, NV and have project every year that require the initial provisioning of 1000+ devices. I anticipate that this tool will be invaluable to me going forward. My question is that when I reference a CSV and configuration file together, the output will be sent by default to the screen. I have exported the output on my Windows machines using the "> configurations.txt" line appended after the command but that still only creates one bulk file. My goal is to export each configuration to a separate file with a unique name (preferably using the variables defined in the CSV such as "hostname" and "IP" so that others will know to which device the configuration belongs. I am by no means a programmer and have created this account on Github to simply ask you this question as I didn't know how to best contact you. Please let me know if you need any further information from me and if this request is possible with the current release. If it is not, I would be very interested in such a feature if you continued to develop this program. Thank you so much for everything so far and I look forward to hearing from you.
