Should be a simple matter of modifying the

Code:

(?P<series_index>[0-9]*)

section to say that the character set should include a period in addition to numbers.

So:

Code:

(?P<series_index>[.0-9]*)

...

AFAIK the period shouldn't do anything wonky re: filenames, unless of course the file has no extension -- which would mean the period there was declaring everything else to be the file extension.

Fortunately, that is rather unlikely.
