I am trying to get some help that's beyond RTFM.  I have an ebook
series in pdf that I am trying to split into its' component books.
When I split the book into pages, it numbers them
1,2,3,...10,11,12...100,101,102...etc., just like it should.  I'm
trying to arrange them to merge, but they get listed as
100,101,102.....10,11,12...1......200,201,202....20,21,22,......2, and
so on.  I need to add leading zeros to the files (two zeros to single
digit files, one zero to two digit files...) for reassembly.

Any pointers?

For posterity:

for file in ??[FILENAME].pdf; do mv "$file"  "0$file"; done

for file in $(ls -1 *.pdf | sort -n); do
  mv $file $(printf "%03d.pdf" ${file%.pdf})
done
