EasyTAG is a tool for viewing and modifying tags in MP3, MP2, FLAC, Ogg Vorbis,
MP4 / AAC, MusePack, Monkey's Audio and WavPack files. It has an easy-to-use
GTK2 interface. To run an installed AmiCygnix environment is required.

This is the second release of EasyTAG 2.1.8. The default settings have been set
to more meaningful values and the installer script has been revised.

  * Simple and clear interface!

Installation
------------

  The X11 environment AmiCygnix version 1.2 (or higher) must be installed
  before! AmiCygnix is available on OS4-depot (http://os4depot.net).

  To install the package, just click on the "Install"-icon. The data will be
  installed into the AmiCygnix package. Afterwards you can find the programs in
  "Cygnix:Software/EasyTag-2.1.8". To launch the program doubleclick on
  "Start_EasyTag_Desktop.bat" or "Start_EasyTag_Standalone.bat".


Problems
--------

  The function "Browser/Scan Directory with..." is untestet. Unfortunalety it is
  not really clear to me, how this should work. This function makes it possible,
  to scan a directory with an external program. Any hints are welcome ;-)
