Hello, How can you dump tags from files that are in FLAC format? At times I need to convert flac files and I would like to save the tag info so it can be re-applied. I have also been unable to find info on tagging FLAC archives. The FAQ has no info on this. My attempts to use the -T option have not gone well. Most threads on the subject discuss windows based tools. Thank you!
