Re: flack - a menu-driven BASH script to tag your FLAC files

Nice, but I have a few suggestion :
- To Edit tags you must select Add tags which is quite confusing...
- The Pink color is a little hard to read on a white terminal background. Maybe you can add an argument to display the text in Black&White ?

Re: flack - a menu-driven BASH script to tag your FLAC files

Ok, I just tested the new version :
- It's harder to read than before sad
- If you select ie: remove tags and select the other option (o), you can't cancel your choice. You could always leave the field empty (nothing will be removed), but a simple option to leave would be better IMHO.
- To quit, you sometimes have to enter b, b, b, q. An exiting option always available could be a nice improvement wink (I'm aware of ctrl+c, that's not the point).

Something else, I don't know if it is a bug or not, but I currently have a track, where the field Comment contains "Track 1". This field isn't listed by flack.

Sorry if can't give you feedback more often, but I don't tag my music collection everyday roll

Re: flack - a menu-driven BASH script to tag your FLAC files

Again, thanks alot for the feedback!

2.0.3 released, taking on board your critique.

Erm about the possible bug, can you run this command on the file and post the output:

metaflac --export-tags-to=- "$FILENAME"

Re: flack - a menu-driven BASH script to tag your FLAC files

ALBUM=Lost Highway
ARTIST=Bon Jovi
DATE=2007
GENRE=Rock
TITLE=Lost Highway
TRACKNUMBER=1

It's fine, I think it is related to the file itself. If I let the field empty and save with thunar, "Track 1" is displayed again.
I will give the new version a try, but currently I have nothing to tag.
Thank you for your help anyway.
