Add a option to disable creation of chapter info

[Tenpi]

The idea

Why would you add this ugly thing, can you remove it please? I don't see an option to remove them.

Why this feature should be added to the app ?

Looks ugly

That "ugly" thing called chapter info, it gives you information what chapter and volume currently you reading on. I assume you download manga in any volume or single format, so that thing is created.

Is there any reason other than "looks ugly" to remove this thing ?

I am looking between fan translations and the japanese manga for studying. However, because you added these chapter covers the downloaded manga is not the same length as the original. It is very annoying to figure out which pages correspond to which. Manually deleting the covers doesn't fix the incorrect page number in the filename eg. Vol-105.jpg in the manga downloaded by this program would be Vol-100.jpg of the actual manga.

Fair enough, thanks for the explanation 👍.

Added to v2.0.0 development. There will be option that you can use to disable creation of chapter info for any volume and single format.

The chapter info will remain exist as is (because personally i need them)
