In Windows XP, it is also possible to drag and drop the images files in
the desired order and one can also rename the files. The format is a bit
better than in Picasa, though still limited, but all files get numbered.
However, in XP the numbering format is easily refined using a shell
script afterwards.

So, this is a surprise for me actually (and a pleasant one for my
Windows user friends) that this dragging and dropping files to order
them and then to rename them in a batch mode was more easily accomplised
in Windows than in Linux. Oh well ...


So comforting to know that I can do that between freezes on my S.P.2'd
gaming partition... ;-)
