New option for downloads

Updated:

In a follow up to the change made and announced in the 'Change to Download Buttons and Formats', in response to user request, I added the option to have natural file names for downloaded files.

Previously, url-safe file names were used in the system. Since this is not optimal and not exactly necessary anymore, I added the option to switch away from this archaic tradition.

So for example, previously, the text version of 'Doing it all over' by 'Al Steiner' was downloaded in a file titled 'doing_it_all_over@al_steiner.txt'. With the new option it would become 'Doing it all over - Al Steiner.txt'

The same downloads preferences page allows you to make the switch:

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I was so tired of having to edit all the underscores out before saving the file.

Personally 'Al Steiner - Doing it all over.txt' would be a better format as when using alphanumerical sorting, it could put all the stories from the same author together. Either way, thanks for the update Lazeez

Story Title / Author Name
Author Name / Story Title

Scratch that, I just realised there's the option to change the order in the preferences. Thanks Again :)
