Hi Mark,
in the rename dialog, such an option exists - just switch on 'add original file
name' (or similar, I use the german translation). This will rename your
pictures according to
img_0188.jpg -> img_0188_01.jpg
img_0189.jpg -> img_0188_02.jpg
...
if you write nothing on the prefix line. Names like
img_0188.jpg -> web--img_0188_01.jpg
img_0189.jpg -> web--img_0188_02.jpg
...
result if you put "web--" in the prefix line.
What seems to be a bug, however, is that the renaming dialog by default
chooses the ordering opposite to the one chosen in the digikam window.
Best regards,
Gandalf
