Just simple script for my girlfriend to rename her rendered animation images... This is when you create animation with Google Sketchup on several scenes. For some reason Sketchup starts naming each scene image 0079.0001.png , insted of 0080.png . Script will just sort named files and rename them in order

  0079.png
  0079.0001.png
  0079.0002.png
  ....
  0079.0282.png
  0079.0282.0001png
  .....

will rename to

 00000001.png
 00000002.png
 00000003.png
