Perhaps precision parameters that allow: padding to be specified (and to 
what width) or no padding. So you might say padding=4 to get 4 digits (the 
present behaviour) or padding=0 to get no padding at all. This is listed 
as bug 139 now.

This is only necessary for output files.

For input files, the names already exist, though there is a bug open about 
some other aspect of this causing a problem (bug 116).
