Then there are all the people who could have submitted a patch but didn't... so it seems that nobody cares enough to fix the bug. Maybe they're using something else instead. I always manage my audio files from the shell and I'll probably continue to do so. A friend once searched hard for a good music organizing tool under Linux but found nothing suitable. Suppose you have a collection of symphonies, string quartets, piano sonatas etc. Each track is a separate file, but three or four tracks, typically, constitute the entire work. Or consider an opera - divided into acts, scenes etc., and you need to be able to select those. The problem is that (as of a few years ago, at least, and according to someone who searched) there's no tool that will recognize the appropriate hierarchical levels in a music collection. That's a rather fundamental design flaw. _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] http://lists.luv.asn.au/listinfo/luv-main
