My cousin runs his own business and asked if I would pass this around:
Brad Russell brad@volantissolutions.[redacted]
Basic info on the first round of stuff:
- Working in joomla, 1.5 and 2.5, troubleshooting PHP errors likely related
to caching
- server security work and fixing from hacking, likely through joomla
extension security vulnerabilities
- Debian squeeze maintenance and security
- migrating one VPS to another VPS service, several sites
Interested people should provide 1-3 sentences on their familiarity &
experience in each of those areas, as well as a desired hourly rate.

Subject: Need help with assorted issues(command line only).
Message-ID: <CAO2sX31R6dZVn=0iLYoD277B49wVwvNJofYZB-i64APwpEM5PQ@mail.gmail.[redacted]>
Okay, I am having several issues I need some help with, and google
searches are producing more frustration than useful information.
Please note: Due to my vision, I am working strictly from the
command-line, so please do not suggest any graphical applications.
1. I recently lost my collection of flac files ripped from CD in a
drive format, but fortunately, I have recover the vast majority of the
files thanks to photerec, and lltag has gone a long way to helping
make-up for the fac that photorec cannot recover filenames. However, I
have a few issues that leave me with about 200 flac files that are
still a disorganized mess:
-Several albums worth of music with non-Latin characters in their
tags, which translate to filenames that the command line cannot
properly display and my screen reader cannot properly read. The
culprits are mainly tracks from Japanese or Chinese artists. I would
like to scan my entire music collection, romanizing the artist, album,
title, etc tags of the Japanese and Chinese music in my collection as
well as removing any accents from European music. Is there a
command-line tool that can help with this?
-Several tracks, sometimes entire albums worth, that have valid
Artist, Album, and Title tags, but are lacking a proper track number,
preventing lltag from naming them in a manner that maintains the
proper track ordering. Is there any command-line utility that can take
the existing tag information, find the corresponding CDDB entry, and
fill in the corrupted/missing tags?
-10 albums worth of files that have blank tags due to no CDDB results
when the discs were originally ripped. Mostly classical, but at least
2 j-pop albums are mixed in with them. Is there anything that might be
able to help give these files the proper tags?
For the record, most, if not all of the flac files were originally
ripped via abcde and tagged automatically based on its CDDB query.
2. I have a large collection of files that needs organizing, and the
first step towards that is converting the mixture of roman and
Japanese text in their filenames to pure romaji so that I can properly
manipulate the files via command line utilities. The second step is
figuring out a way to mass extract the large number of archive files
among this collection to individual folders so that I can compare
their content to already organized files on my system. And speaking of
comparing files, fdupes has proven quite useful for finding and
removing duplicate files, and while the -N option is useful for cases
that return large number of duplicate files, I have been unable to
reliably determine which copy of a file will be automatically kept
and which will be automatically deleted. Say for example, I have a
folder of Sorted content that I know has no duplicates, and an
unsorted folder that may have one or more duplicates, including
duplicates of files in the sorted folder. Is there a way to force
fdupes to keep everything in sorted, and delete any dupees it finds in
unsorted without having to manually select which file to keep on a
case-by-case basis.
3. I am running low on storage space and wish to compress a large
collection of files I do not access very often. The files in question
are well organized in a multi-tiered directory structure, and I would
like to create an archive for each bottom level dierectory without
losing the directory. Is their a way to automate this process, and
what archive format would be best suited to the purpose. If it
matters, the majority of the files are monochrome jpeg, though there
are also png and other assorted file types in the mixed.
4. I need to burn some isos to cd. my understanding is that wodim is
the tool for the job, but I can find a straight foward guide via
google, the help page is longer than my screen and piping to nano
failed to create a text document of the help page. I do not need
anything fancy , just the command line to burn file.iso in the working
directory to the blank CD-R in my only optical drive.
5. Since I have been relying on the command line for file management,
I have noticed that when I use the mv command to to move entire
directory structures, that if the source and destination have
subdirectories with the same name, mv stops. Is there a way to make it
add the contents from the source version of the directory to the into
the destination copy?
Any help with any of these issues would be greatly appreciated.
