The playlists created by this tool always start with a +space to avoid conflicts with your manually created playlists. + +So if you keep your sound in Artist/Album/ directories, you'll get playlists +named like " Artist - Album", and also playlists named just " Artist" that +contain all music by that artist. An " all" playlist is also created, that +contains all your music. + +Each time it's run it updates the playlists, and removes any obsolete ones +that it created before. + +=head1 LIMITATIONS + +It does not currently sort songs in an album by track number, but instead +sorts by filename. + +=head1 AUTHOR + +Copyright 2007 Joey Hess <joey@kitenet.net> + +Licensed under the GNU GPL version 2 or higher. + +http://kitenet.net/~joey/code/mpdtoys + +=cut + +POD |
