This will post-pend id3v1 tags. I thought they were found at the
beginning of files.
If not, then it looks fine to me. I may add some parentheses, though,
like (tail -c 128 ${f} > tag) && (flac-0.8 -d $f ${f%flac}wav), etc.
That decoding line should be "${f%.flac}", no "*", right?
For
simplicity's sake, I'm not going to take off the "." at the
end before
I postpend "wav". Thus:
flac-0.9 -V ${f%flac}wav $f
Seem better?
(-8 BTW, I'm on Linux Mandrake cooker, not Windows. 8-)
Thanks a lot for this, btw.
