As a special service "Fossies" has tried to format the requested text file into HTML format (style: standard) with prefixed line numbers. Alternatively you can here view or download the uninterpreted source code file.

A hint: This file contains one or more very long lines, so maybe it is better readable using the pure text view mode that shows the contents as wrapped lines within the browser window.

    6 Initialy this script was command lined based and used to convert spaces to underscores on all mp3s in a given directory, namefix quickly grew in popularity so case formatting and many other options were added. Now it sports a sexy, simplistic GUI and can run on multiple operating systems.

   16 Hi Im Jacob the guy who was the 1st created (for linux at least) an automatic mp3 renaming (now all media types) program for neat freaks like myself. Now there are quite a few which I think is great. Id like to give prior recognition to Dave 'Zoid' Kirsch it was his quake 2 skin renamer for linux (it shifted all names to lower case) that gave me the idea.
