So, where we're at now is something more along the lines of
Fig_10-1_XYZ_10_Rotating_Assembly.eps. At this point, we at least have a
fighting chance of turning up what we need quickly in a search or a
visual scan of filenames.
---------------------------
One question... What happens when you add a new figure, and Fig_10 now
becomes Fig_11 in your doc?
Perhaps there is a way that it can work for some groups, but I've
avoided naming graphics by their figure numbers for as long as I can
remember for just such a reason.
