Short: Fixes ID file comments (ARexx script) V1.1 Author: rkoerber@tfh.dssd.sub.org (Richard Koerber) Uploader: rkoerber@tfh.dssd.sub.org (Richard Koerber) Type: disk/cdrom Requires: ARexx Languages: English This is a short ARexx script I wrote. It searches through a directory that contains ID files for CeeD, MCDPlayer, OptyCDPlayer or compatible, and sets all relating file comments to Artist and CD-Title. Now you can easily locate a CD file by its file comment. The comment format is: : . Note that all quotation marks will be stripped! USAGE: - Change into the directory where ID files are located. - Enter rx FixCDID.readme - Wait and see what happens :-) NOTE THAT: - non-ID files are skipped - all ID file names are converted to upper case - even existing file comments will be replaced! - OptyCDPlayer packet ID files will be assimilated NEW: - The ID files of OptyCDPlayer were a little bit different. Instead of the artist, most ID files contain the ID number. FixCDID now recognizes these files, and assimilate them into the collective! :) - Strips comment length to 79 chars, to avoid filenote warnings. DISCLAIMER: This script is Public Domain. You can use and/or abuse it as you deem necessary, but you also bare the full risk! Don't blame me if all files on your partition are renamed or deleted... :) Please feel free to send me an e-mail about what you think of FixCDID.
