If I add those files, the program automatically puts them at the top and doesn't let me order them the way I want.
In the interim, you can use 1-4a Rename (it's free and you can find it here: http://www.1-4a.com/rename/) to bulk-covert the contents of folders pretty painlessly. I originally used this to convert audiobook rips to a more me-friendly format and have stuck with it since. I know you still have to do a little of this on the manual side; e.g., have each chapter in its own folder - rename first to 1-xx - rename next folder contents to xx-yy - etc., but it will get the job done if you want it all in one book; or you can stick with multiple chapters per book. I personally like one single book per anime volume, so I spend the extra minute or two fixing things up to work the way I like it to.

I think it will be a bit of a tough job to script in the renaming without cludging along a bit, because you don't really know how people are packing these things from the get-go (it seems quite random to me, as it varies so much site-to-site & editor-to-editor). Until then, good luck!
