About flack
-----------
flack was born when I decided I didn't need a GUI to edit my FLAC
collection. Having put quite some time into this project, it seemed
appropriate to share it with the community.
For installation instructions, view the INSTALL file.
For changes, view the ChangeLog file.

Important Notes
---------------
- Depending on how many flack files you have, the temporary directory
can become a few MB in size. If flack is not running, you can safely
delete the temporary directory (/tmp/flack-USERNAME).
- flack now runs checks on startup that determine whether any files
throw up errors when accessed by metaflac. If you are accessing a
very large directory and the files have already been checked, you
can skip with the '-s' option but this is generally not recommended.
- Also checked is whether the file can be written to. These are
excluded unless the '-i' command line option is passed. Useful for
if you just wish to view tags of files that do not belong to your
user. However, at the moment this will break flack if you try to edit
unwritable files!
- The syntax of the flackrc file has changed for the 2.0.0 release, so
it is important that you use the new file instead. The option to
change the temporary directory has been removed, as this causes
problems and there really shouldn't be a need to change it anyway.
The option to change the logfile is still available though, but when
running multiple instances of flack, they will all write to the same
logfile.
- The --keep-special-characters option is used during renaming of
filenames according to their tags. Normally, any occurrences of '?'
':' or a leading '-' are replaced with '_'. With this option,
these characters are not replaced.
- Now when viewing a single file, it's tags are displayed above the
menu if there are 10 lines or less. This value can be changed with
the '-m' command line option.
