At the moment it seems this is only possible with 3rd party software (which have limited functionality) in this aspect.

We also offer an API that can be utilized to write your own custom application with the desired functionality. We may also suggest products like QCollector which many of our customers find to be quite feature rich for exporting our data. It isn't out of the question that we will provide the requested functionality in the IQ Feed Core product in the future, however it isn't on our near term roadmap. Please feel free to contact our Sales department in regards to DTNiQ or our custom API at sales@iqfeed.net or (800) 475-4755.

The issue is that QCollector doesn't allow you to define the fields in the ascii file. The fields in the header are fixed. I want to create a futures history file that includes the expiration date of the futures contract in the continuous back-adjusted history.
