Hi Francesco,

sorry but your contact form on fasterland.net still doesn't work. And since I do not want to write to Gmail addresses (due to Google violating users privacy), here are several topics all in a single GitHub issue, I know this isn't the best way to raise issues, sorry about that, but I'm lacking time unfortunately...

Documentation: since I couldn't find any documentation, I had to play around with renaming options for quite a long time before reaching some conclusions. Apparently, # character means either "file basename" or "numeric ID" depending on the chosen option for the output file name. Would it be possible to add some explanations about this, for example via a popup message while hovering the "Prefix/Suffix" and "Incremental number" fields? Note: choosing the same character (#) for different meanings is quite misleading IMO. In addition, it would be really useful to mix (select both) ways to name the output file (to allow keeping the file basename AND adding a numeric ID at the same time). For example, with an input file named dummy.jpg, generated output files could be named dummy_copy_1.jpg, dummy_copy_2.jpg, etc.

Documentation

Unfortunately I didn't have the time to write a detailed documentation for Converseen, anyway I'll do my best to do it in the future. Thank you for the suggension about the renaming feature!

French translation issues and GUI layout:

I don't speak French language so I wasn't aware of all these problems. I will try to contact the French translator and I will tell him about all these issues, but I don't know if he is still available.

in the image conversion "Status" window...

I'm unable to reproduce this bug since on my Arch Linux with Plasma this button opens the correct directory. I will check for bugs in the code.

I faced an application crash today, after adding tens of images...

I will check if there's a bug with functions related to the selecting actions.

Thank you very much for you bug report! :)
