I know what you mean. Upgrade when there's a good reason to. :)

As far as I know, there's no way built into Pan, but if you're using
Bash
as your command shell, you can save them all in the same place and do
something like this:
for f in *.jpg ; do mv "${f}" "BobsCat${f}" ; done
When testing a batch command like that, you might want to use "echo mv"
instead of plain "mv", so it'll print out everything it would do, instead
of actually doing it. That's saved my butt a few times! :)
At least in 0.14.0, the %g symbol in "Save attachments as..." directory
will expand to alt.binaries.pictures.cats, and %G will expand to
alt/binaries/pictures/cats. I don't know when that was introduced, and I
*am* aware that that affects the directory name, not the filename itself,
but that's about all the info I have on that subject.
