NAME
       filenametoid3 - set id3 metadata from filename

SYNOPSIS
       filenametoid3 [-v] [-q] [-d] [-1] [-2] [-a] [-t] [-g] [-e] [-w] [-N]
       [-A] [-L] [-T] [-h] [file.mp3...]

DESCRIPTION
       filenametoid3 parses given mp3 filenames and sets the id3 (v1 and v2)
       metadata.

       If none of the -N/-A/-L/-T options are set, it defaults to updating all
       data.

       For details on how to configure your style of filenames by configuring
       .mp3archiverc, see MP3::Archive::Config(3).

       -q  Quiet (no output). This is the default.

       -d  Dry run (just show what would be done).

       -1  Write ID3V1 tag only

       -2  Write ID3V2 tag only

       -a  Treat files as album tracks.

       -t  Treat files as non-album tracks.

       -g  Guess whether to treat files as album tracks or not, based on the
	   current directory of the file.

       -e  Only set tags if they are empty, just whitespace, or not present.

       -w  Wipe existing id3 tags.

       -N  Only update the id3 tracknumber tags.

       -A  Only update the id3 artist tags.
