Great app! Probably the best Kemono Downloader I've seen in years, stable and fast.
But maybe I missed a part of the tutorial, have you implemented the function of automatically renaming files? Currently, if I download a post, the file name in the post will be a hash string (perhaps this is the original file name when the author uploaded it), which makes some manga posts difficult to read after downloading.
Maybe you can add a function (or you have already added it but I didn't notice it) to automatically rename the files according to the order of the files in the post? For example date_post_title_01, date_post_title_02, ... etc.
Finally, thank you again for your app!

In Advanced Settings, there's a checkbox called "Manga/Comic Mode". When enabled, a "Post Title" button appears at the top of the progress log. Clicking it will cycle through five renaming modes:

Post Title
Renames files using the post title. If there are multiple files, it adds suffixes like _1, _2, etc.
Original
Keeps the original file names unchanged.
Date Based
Downloads files in order from oldest to newest, naming them 001, 002, etc. You can also add an optional prefix before the number.
Date + Title
Renames files using the upload date followed by the post title.
Example: 2025-05-29 Title
Title + Gnum
Same as Date Based but adds the post title before the number.
Example: Title 001, Title 002

Note: Some modes use a single-threaded download to maintain strict order. and if you can give artist name I can suggest the best settings to download
