Hello community,

I'm currently working with EnergyPlus, and I am facing an issue with the output variables in the CSV files. I have defined numerous outputs, and during postprocessing using Matlab, I've encountered a problem where some output headers in the CSV file are too long, exceeding the maximum Matlab variable name length. As a result, Matlab truncates the variable names, making it challenging to distinguish between different variables during analysis..

I'm wondering if there is a way to modify the output variable names directly in EnergyPlus to make them more manageable for Matlab postprocessing.

Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
