The goal is to have reader-friendly HTML file names which support a name sorting of the files that also reflects the ordering of the topics in the manual. Moreover, whatever naming scheme is used, it should be flexible.
True, I could start my topic numbering at 0 and increment by 1 within the chapter. However, by starting the topic numbering for a chapter at 10 and having the increment be 5, other topics could be inserted manually at later points in time.
Although I realize that as long as I have the FrameMaker source, Ill always insert the topic there and re-export.
The real issue is that one day I might lose the FrameMaker source. The readers probably dont have the source.
If all that I or my readers had was the HTML files, it would not be an insurmountable task to create manually new topics and have them be fully integrated where they belong. Additional tasks would be to:
update previous/next links on surrounding topics
update m_tree.script files with the new topics
update index HTML files with any appropriate entries.
