Output File name option #30

Currently, the app outputs files with a name such as:

$ ls                                                       
chapter-10.cbz  chapter-1.cbz  chapter-4.cbz  chapter-7.cbz
chapter-11.cbz  chapter-2.cbz  chapter-5.cbz  chapter-8.cbz

Sitting in a folder something like /home/user/path/to/comics/www.site.com/comic-name.

It would be great if the output name was comic-name-0001.cbz. The reason is then the sorting in a directory of large comics is displayed properly (say you had something like Action COmics that is over issue 1000). And the other reason for the file name is that for the comic readers the simply scan a single directory - you can dump them all into a single directory if desired. Then if you combine this request with the other request that was open to specify an output path, you can automate downloads quite easy.

One quick follow up - did you decide against the number padding for any particular reason? Just curious.

There was a problem with filename ordering.
