<para>If specified, the <parameter>chunked.filename.prefix</parameter> 
parameter specifies a prefix string to add to each generated chunk filename.
For example:</para>
<programlisting>&lt;xsl:param name="chunked.filename.prefix"&gt;admin-&lt;xsl:param&gt;</programlisting>
<para>will produce chunked filenames like:</para>
<programlisting>admin-index.html
admin-ch01.html
admin-ch01s01.html
...
</programlisting>

<caution><para>Trying to use the <parameter>base.dir</parameter>
parameter to add a string prefix (by omitting the trailing slash)
no longer works (it never worked completely anyway). That parameter
value should contain only a directory path, and
now gets a trailing slash appended if it was omitted from the param.</para></caution>
