.SH "DESCRIPTION"
This manual page briefly documents the \fBmp3tag\fR command. This manual page
was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program
does not have one.
\fBmp3tag\fR is a program that allows you to both view and manipulate ID3v1
metadata tags. Running the command with just a filename will display the
file's current tag. Setting some options will cause the tag to be updated and
displayed.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.BI \-a \ artist
Set the artist name to \fIartist\fR. Strings over thirty characters are
truncated.
.TP
.BI \-e \ comment
Set the comment to \fIcomment\fR. Strings over thirty characters are truncated.
.TP
.BI \-g \ genre
Set the genre to \fIgenre\fR. This is a single integer with a value of 0 to 254
corresponding to the appropriate Winamp compatible genre (use '\fB\-g\fR list'
to list all supported genres).
.TP
.BI \-k \ track
Set the track number to \fItrack\fR. This is a single integer with a value of 0
to 255. Specifying this field truncates the comment field to twenty-eight
characters, as per the ID3v1.1 standard.
.TP
.BI \-l \ album
Set the album name to \fIalbum\fR. Strings over thirty characters are truncated.
.TP
.B \-r
Merge new tag with any preexisting tag in the file.
.TP
.BI \-s \ song
Set the song name to \fIsong\fR. Strings over thirty characters are truncated.
.TP
.BI \-y \ year
Set the year to \fIyear\fR. Strings over four characters are truncated.
.SH EXAMPLES
.TP
Display foo.mp3's current ID3v1 info:
\fBmp3tag\fR foo.mp3
.TP
Set foo.mp3's artist to 'Bar', and album to 'Baz':
\fBmp3tag\fR -a Bar -l Baz foo.mp3
.TP
Set foo.mp3's year to 2001, merging it with any tag already present:
\fBmp3tag\fR -y 2001 -r foo.mp3
.SH AUTHOR
