I must say I am a newbie but I could install the tag library, compile your program and I am using it :) Thanks a lot. Just one thing... since I have some files with foreign characters (in spanish, like the ñ and á é í ó ú), the program doesn't work when they are present. I am trying to develop a bash script doing the same as your C program: #!/bin/bash TITLE="`id3tool "$1" | grep '^Song Title:' | awk '{ for (i=3;i<=NF;i++) { printf $i } }'`" ARTIST="`id3tool "$1" | grep '^Artist:' | awk '{ for (i=2;i<=NF;i++) { printf $i } }'`" ALBUM="`id3tool "$1" | grep '^Album:' | awk '{ for (i=2;i<=NF;i++) { printf $i; } }'`" GENRE=" `id3tool "$1" | grep '^Genre:' | awk '{ for (i=2;i<=NF;i++) { printf $i } }'`" install -D "$1" /home/asphix/Public/prueba/"$ARTIST"/"$ALBUM"/"$ARTIST - $TITLE".mp3 I have some issues, the ARTIST and ALBUM lacks of spaces ( " " ) and in GENRE it includes some kind of funny characters after the GENRE. I am trying to solve those issues. Any help is apreciated. Sorry for my bad english Thanks again! Hi, thanks for your program! I must say I am a newbie but I could install the tag library, compile your program and I am using it :) Thanks a lot. Just one thing… since I have some files with foreign characters (in spanish, like the ñ and á é í ó ú), the program doesn’t work when they are present. I am trying to develop a bash script doing the same as your C program:

#!/bin/bash
TITLE=”`id3tool “$1″ | grep ‘^Song Title:’ | awk ‘{ for (i=3;i<=NF;i++) { printf $i } }’`”
ARTIST=”`id3tool “$1″ | grep ‘^Artist:’ | awk ‘{ for (i=2;i<=NF;i++) { printf $i } }’`”
ALBUM=”`id3tool “$1″ | grep ‘^Album:’ | awk ‘{ for (i=2;i<=NF;i++) { printf $i; } }’`”
GENRE=” `id3tool “$1″ | grep ‘^Genre:’ | awk ‘{ for (i=2;i<=NF;i++) { printf $i } }’`”

install -D “$1″ /home/asphix/Public/prueba/”$ARTIST”/”$ALBUM”/”$ARTIST – $TITLE”.mp3

I have some issues, the ARTIST and ALBUM lacks of spaces ( ” ” ) and in GENRE it includes some kind of funny characters after the GENRE. I am trying to solve those issues. Any help is apreciated.
Sorry for my bad english
Thanks again!
