I want to use Automator to insert a date in front of a file name. However, the date options for Finder in Automator are limited.

I want this:
filename.ext

To be this:
2009.07.08_filename.ext

They have options for doing something close to this, but I need it exactly as I I have it with periods as separators and two digit day and month.

Is there anything I can do to make that happen in Automator?

I know I can use something like A Better Finder Rename - but that costs I believe.
