trackrename - renames files based on metadata

SYNOPSIS

trackrename [OPTIONS] <track 1> [track 2] ...

trackrename takes a list of audio files and renames them based on external or internal metadata.

-h, --help: show a list of options and exit
-I, --interactive: edit format string in interactive mode prior to renaming tracks
--format=STRING: The format string to use for new filenames. Template fields are replaced with metadata values when new tracks are created. All other text is left as-is. If this option is omitted, a default format string is used.
-V, --verbose=VERBOSITY: The level of output to display. Choose between 'normal', 'quiet' and 'debug'.

Rename all of the FLAC files in the current directory based on their FLAC tag metadata:
