Musort

Ogranize your music library. A Python3 program that renames all selected music/audio files in a folder with a specified naming convention.

Before using this program, use a metadata editor like MusicBrainz Picard, Beets or EasyTAG to add the correct metadata to the audio files.

Give a separator for the naming of the file (ex. track.title.flac or track_title.flac)
Works on all systems that can run Python
