Files named this way because whitespaces in original filename were breaking leech in some way (i don't quite remember in what way exactly), thus leech replaces it with $MD5 of the URL to eliminate those errors.

To make leech use original filenames, you might create your own recipe derived from leech-default and use something like (cd $LEECH_DOWNLOADS_DIR && curl ...), omitting -o option. I guess.

As far as i'm concerned, $MD5 shouldn't break anything or be inconvenient in the process of automatic files downloading (what leech is for) and i assume the reason behind this proposal is "niceness" of files on disk.

Taking this into account, i'm marking this issue with "wont fix". But if i'm mistaken, i would appreciate if you could describe details either in email or re-opening this ticket, or spawning another ticket in form of: 1) what are you trying to do 2) what is impossible to do 3) why it's important to use original filenames for this.

Thanks.
