Hello.

This is a mere feature request and I don't know if it's possible.

I know there is %T for window title, but sometimes the window title can be pretty long, like when you're taking a screenshot of your firefox browser window for example.

I come from the ShareX app on Windows and I'm very happy with what Spectacle offers, but I think a new variable like %A containing the app's process name would be nice in order to better sort screenshots in a folder.

Thanks in advance.

Seems reasonable to add the app name at least.
