clid

Note: Clid is being rewritten at the moment, in the rewrite branch. Don't let that stop you from opening issues, though :)

Clid is a command line app for editing tags of mp3 files. Clid is different from other command line tools to edit tags, as you can edit tags in a curses based ui.

I couldn't have made this app without these amazing libraries:

• npyscreen, a Python wrapper around ncurses.
• stagger, an ID3v1/ID3v2 tag manipulation package written in pure Python 3
• configobj, a Python 3+ compatible port of the configobj library
