[Easytag-mailing] Re: Comment and suggestions

[Richard Hornell <richardh hyphen8 com>]

The best program of this type under windows seems to be tag & rename, its a good place to start.
Im using gentoo linux now and easytag compiles and run perfectly, the button options are cool. Need to add a gnome menu entry and icon. I find the startup scan anoying myself, all in all i think its a excellent program.
I will look at submitting a ebuild to gentoo when i work out how to write one.

cheers rich
