Hi everyone,

I just released the first version of this new project which aims to  
provide library for music tagging with the simplest yet useful API.

It’s done in C, and basically it’s a wrapper around taglib, so it  
supports the same formats: ID3v1, ID3v2 for MP3 files, Ogg Vorbis and  
FLAC files.

Of course, bindings for Ruby and… _cough_ Python _cough_ are provided.

The client code looks like this:

file = MTag::File.new(“song.mp3”)  
print(“%s - %s\n” % [file.tag.artist, file.tag.title])  
file.tag.artist = “foo”  
file.save

I hope you like it:
