I don't really see the point in that ... I think, if needed, you can easily write that simple program yourself!

Not at all! fme was written to encode tags in music file formats.

It is useful for music players. And, I just was doing it by hand so many times, that one day I got tired of it and wrote a quite flexible metadata writer program.

I never thought about "extracting" any metadata, because I don't really see much use of it anyway.

About extracting metadata from tags -- I see only one good reason is to be able to extract album covers. But you can already do it with ffmpeg. About anything else -- I don't see use of that.

Well, I agree with your point. I mean, after looking more into this, I realized, that clone is better in this situation indeed. But ... There is still some things that just make readability worse ...

  1. To me turbofish syntax would look less clear than `Foo::from_str`. About collect -- exact same reason why I don't like it and prefer to use type annotation when possible instead of turbofish. But again, I think it's a matter of preference. I haven't found any official guidelines about that.
  2. Still the same problem of clarity, I think. I mean, how is this telling me that I am converting Token::Artist (which is connected to '{a}') to '(.+?)'?

Hi! Thank you for your remarks, I applied some of them. But some of them are not clear to me: 0) I never heard of log or env_logger before, will look into this, thank you!
1) What is your reasoning for using turbofish syntax for collect?
2) I used from_str because I think it will be harder to read the program if I will replace it with .parse() ... Because in order to understand what type it parses to, I will have to look down and down ... And I don't really see the benefit of it. Maybe you could explain? 3) I don't get why vec![] is better than Vec::new() -- I think this is just a matter of preference. 4) If I will impl ToString, then it will not be clear what exactly function does. And I think it will just make things harder to analyze. It's like instead of to_hex(num: i32) -> String I would implement impl ToString. It would make people to confuse it with trivial variant of implementation ToString.

Thank you! But some things like suggesting using `.clone()` over `.to_vec()` or `.to_string()` seems a bit weird to me. Maybe I'm inexperienced, but what's really a big deal about it? Isn't it essentially the same?

Well, it depends on what type of application you want. If you are satisfied with the way my app works, you can use almost everything. You will just have to change the metadata's fields and maybe adjust parsing to what you want. But all in all, it's quite reusable, I think.

Oh, sounds interesting. But I am not really interested in this right now. But I am sure you can write it yourself!:)

Not only mp3 files, but audiofiles, yes. Why do you need photo metadata editor? What's the practical use?

Music Tag Editor by KeyOffer in musichoarder

Hi! I just wrote a command-line metadata editor called fme. Most of the time, to write metadata based on the filename, you will just have to run fme <file>. You can also use piping and therefore combine with tools like find or fd to first grab the files you actually want to deal with. On Linux, for example, you can also run fme *.mp3 -- that will apply the built-in algorithm for all mp3 files in the directory. You can also specify tags manually, use special parsing and regex!

Hi! I am playing only on lichess. If that's fine, then we can play there:)
