I am thinking that I would like to use the command line interface in a Bash shell script on a Macintosh. Is this possible? If so, what would the proper command be? (/Users/kds/Desktop/MyRecordings/Song1.mp3) I can do it through Terminal but am stuck with the shell scripting aspect. |

If you have installed the CLI rather than copying it (it is installed in /usr/local/bin), you just need to use the name and the track (using the full path of the track) e.g.:
id3edsmd -ti "My Title" /Users/kds/Desktop/MyRecordings/Song1.mp3 If you copied the CLI just use the full path e.g.: /Users/kds/Desktop/id3edcmd -ti "My Title" /Users/kds/Desktop/MyRecordings/Song1.mp3 If you are scripting lots of files, just replace the full file path with the variable you require e.g.: echo "Parsing directory '$1'..." for FILE in "$1"/* do if [[ -f "$FILE" ]]; then id3edcmd -ti "A title" "$FILE" fi done Where $1 is the path used when calling the script. |
