Is there a neat way to use id3v2 to transfer the tags from one mp3
file to another? I am thinking of repairing the tag truncation done
by Audacity, by transplanting the tags from the original file to its
processed copy.
As a side question, some of the tags have non-ASCII characters in
them, and "id3v2 -l" shows them as an unprintable glyph. Sort of a
vertical black hexagon with a ? inside.
The GUI EasyTag seems to know how to represent these characters on screen.
