At the moment, I have the feeling that there is no solution to the
actual problem (avoiding duplicate :file names) without doctoring in an
unsatisfying (and potentially fragile?) way.
I would therefore formulate a feature request:
It is a common error to accidentally use the same :file name and to have
consequently the wrong file in the exported file.
I would therefore suggest a property with the following possible values:
,----
| file_unique
|
| - false :: the actual behaviour, i.e. consequtive :file overwrite the
| original ones *without* warning
| - true :: if more then one :file exist, an consecutive number is automatically
| to the :file and cached to avoid having leftover files (as in temp files)
| - warn :: give a warning on export, so that this error can be fixed
| manually.
`----
I would see this as a valuable addition to the export feature as it
avoids errors.
Cheers,
Rainer
