lltag is a frontend to tag (and rename) mp3/ogg/flac files automagically. See http://bgoglin.free.fr/lltag/ for details. lltag installation instructions =============================== You don't care about this if you use Debian or Gentoo or any other distribution that includes prepackaged lltag versions. Run 'make' followed by 'make install' as root. *Both* command-lines must use the same variables for configuring installation paths. By default, everything is installed in /usr/local/. Most directories might be changed by overriding their default values on the command-line. For instance, a traditional installation (binary in /usr/bin, data in /usr/share, and configuration in /etc) might be achieved with: $ make PREFIX=/usr SYSCONFDIR=/etc MANDIR=/usr/share/man $ make install PREFIX=/usr SYSCONFDIR=/etc MANDIR=/usr/share/man If you don't want or can't install as root, you may use $ make PREFIX=/home/login/where/you/want $ make install PREFIX=/home/login/where/you/want Note that 'make uninstall' (with same options) allows to uninstall. lltag requirements ================== lltag theoretically only requires Perl base to work. However, depending on what type of files you want to work on, you'll need to install either the Perl MP3::Tag module (for MP3 files) or mp3info (for MP3 files, without ID3v2 support), vorbiscomment (for OGG) or metaflac (for FLAC). Additionally, when using CDDB features, LWP (the libwww-perl module) is required. These dependencies are automatically installed when installing Debian or Gentoo prepackaged versions, or at least recommended. lltag may also benefit from a smart readline perl library when the user edits the tags by hand. The recommended library is Term::ReadLine::Gnu (also called GNU Readline Library Wrapper Module) which provides great inline editing and GNU history features. Term::ReadLine::Perl may also be used but it might not be able to save the history between two lltag invocation.
