But if you then do a "ppdc -m", the file names are not prefixed with the manufacturer name.  This seems like a bug to me?  Easy enough to work around it, but was just wondering.  Maybe add a -M option to have the manufacturer name prefix included in the file name?


Please file a bug - "ppdc -m" should be adding the manufacturer name as needed.
