I would love to implement something like the default screenshot
utility for OS X does when it names its pictures.. (i.e. Picture 1,
Picture 2, Picture 3.. etc.)
I was wondering if there's already something in place to do that? If
not, I don't mind implementing it myself but I can't really think of a
simple way to do it? Counting the files in a directory is not really
a reliable way to do it (i.e. if you have Picture 2 and Picture 3 in a
directory, your count is 2... try naming your new picture Picture 3
and it overwrites the existing Picture 3 ...)
I'm fairly good with RegEx so it would be easy to parse filenames for
numbers I guess but it seems a little overkill for such a trivial
task... (especially since my app wouldn't use Regex for anything else
so, I dont want to add a regex framework just for that)...
Any ideas would be appreciated?
