Change Bulk Rename Prefix?
Is there a way to change the default prefix? I seem to remember this being mentioned somewhere, but of course I didn't find anything. Unless what I remember is about changing the default bulk prefix depending on the *type* of file, but that's not what I'm looking for...

@MerlinMama - I think the default prefix fixed as "Chapter-", starting at 1. Maybe it could retain previous value, i.e. if you change it to "Section-" that value would persist, until you change it.

@deback - the file names when bulk renaming

That would be my preference, because I know what I prefer as a prefix might not suit anyone else...
