Here another +1 for starting at 0.
So
| --synth-domain=gently.org.uk,192.168.202.50,192.168.202.70,dyn-*
would in /etc/hosts format
192.168.202.50 dyn-0.gently.ork.uk
192.168.202.51 dyn-1.gently.ork.uk
192.168.202.52 dyn-2.gently.ork.uk
And indeed, on networks where network address ends on zero,
there it will be
192.0.2.0 string0
192.0.2.1 string1
192.0.2.2 string2
192.0.2.3 string3
Another thing, "rollover"
192.0.2.9 string9
192.0.2.10 string10
Should it be "%03d", so
192.0.2.8 string008
192.0.2.9 string009
192.0.2.10 string010
#
192.0.2.99 string099
192.0.2.100 string100
192.0.2.101 string101
