Hello @alexhunsley,
First of all, thanks for using fpart and for your feedback!
Unfortunately, that is not as simple as it seems : padding is just impossible in live mode as you do not know how many partitions will be generated (so you don't know how many 0's you have to prepend).
As I do not want different naming schemes for live vs non-live mode, I prefer leaving the things as they are, even for standard mode.
I am sure you can get around the sorting issue using a numerical sort (e.g. option -n for the sort utility).
Hope that helps, Best regards,
Ganael.
Ah that's a good point! Cheers.
If I generate partition files with the name 'part', I end up with files like this:
These filenames aren't 0-padded so don't sort into a logical order:
Could we have an option for generating 0-padded filenames please? i.e. part.000, part.001, etc.
