oh, nice. that would be much better than the wget behavior:
fu.tar
fu.tar.1
fu.tar.2
But can Firefox only do that because it's coming up with the `.gif'
suffix in the first place as opposed to being presented with a foo.gif
and having to recognise where it insert the increment? Not all files
have suffixes but some contain dots so it isn't just `before the final
dot'.
a suffix is a suffix--at the end.
a suffix in the middle--that's not a suffix, that's wrong.
?
anyway, using what's after the final dot is useful for shell file name
completion and applications (e.g. Firefox is confused about cert.pem.1 but
not cert(1).pem.) most of time, and that's better than never useful?
