list_info name_generation

Allows the user to obtain information for the default names Adams View generates.
Information for the default name settings includes: a general prefix, an entity-specific prefix, an integer entity identifier, and a general suffix. These prefixes, suffixes, and identifiers are combined together to form the default name.
You may instruct Adams View to print this information to the "Info Window" or to a file.
