Hello
Daniel, may I?
So you are a student?
As the same with Hannah and Dennis, I am from Argentina, very proud. I study my
PhD a few years ago in Australia; I have 43 years old, and you?
At this moment I am in work, but I am very happy to know you and I hope to see
you again.

Subject: Off Topic: Automating metaflac and sox.
Message-ID: <CAO2sX3078d7Wr9Dh1YhEmipet+a6eQTitzpNaXmCjA6RxMmd=w@mail.gmail.[redacted]>
Okay, so I've started amassing a collection of Audiobooks and Audio
Dramas in AudioCD format. Compared to Music CD, ripping these to flac
on average requires more post-processing due to things like multiple
discs, incomplete, inconsistant, or missing CDDB data, or
chapters/episodes being split across multiple tracks or discs.
I like having my Audiobooks and Audio Dramas organized as follows:
1 file per Chapter/Episode.
Each file named with chapter/episode number and title if
chapters/episodes are titled or Chapter XX.flac/Episode XX.flac if
they aren't titled.
All the Chapters/Episodes of the same book/program in a directory
named for the book/program.
All Books/Programs by the same Author or in the same franchise in a
directory named for the Author or Franchise.
And with the following file tags:
Artist=Author's Name/Franchise Name as appropriate
Album=Book Tile/Program title
Track= Chapter/Episode Number
Title = Chapter/Episode title if there is one Chapter XX/Episode XX otherwise.
I've been using sox to concatenate tracks belonging to the same
chapter/episode and metaflac for fixing file tags, but I would like to
use scripts to better automate this process after I've gotten files
either sorted into a directory per chapter/episode or into the final
preferred filenames.
For sox, I'd like to create a script that, when executed, will descend
into each subdirectory of the working directory, use sox to
concatenate the flac files found there and spit out the result in the
working directory with a filename that matches the subdirectory whose
contents were concatenated. This problem has a similar structure to
ones I've used a for file in *.ext loop, but I've never done such a
loop where the parameters were directories rather than files with a
given filename extension.
Here is the contents of my untested massSox.sh:
# /bin/bash
for dir in *; do
cd "$dir"
sox * ../"$dir".flac &
cd ../
done
With metaflac, I'd like to create a script that will:
remove all tags for every flac file in the working directory.
set Artist and Album to specified values(if these can be given as
command line parameters or take from Album=../ and Artist=../../ that
would be great).
For each flac file with a filename of the form XX Chapter Title.flac,
it sets track=XX and title=Chapter Title.
for every flace file with a name of the form Chapter XX.flac, it sets
track=XX and Title=Chapter XX with similar for filenames of the form
Episode XX.flac
currently, I've got two scripts for tagging, one to handle the XX
Chapter Title.flac case that requires using ls -1 > filelist.txt to
generate a list of chapter titles and then doing a lot of cutting and
pasting to populate a list of nearly identical commands. The other
tagging script handles the Chapter XX.flac case and only requires that
I add hardcoded Artist and Album values and that there's enough lines
to handle the number of input files. I haven't encountered the Episode
XX.flac case yet, but I can convert tagNoChapterTitles.sh to
tagNoEpisodeTitles.sh with a simple sed command. I would think there
should be a way to do string manipulation of filenames to create a
loop, but my scripting knowledge is not that advanced.
Here are my skeletal tag.sh followed by my tagNoChapterTitles.sh:
# /bin/bash
metaflac --remove-all-tags *.flac
metaflac --set-tag=ARTIST="" --set-tag=ALBUM="" *.flac
metaflac --set-tag=TRACK=01 --set-tag=TITLE="" ""

Subject: GRASS GIS Raleigh meetup, August 20, Hunt, Fishbowl
Message-ID: <CAJeX9NruAFyZnrkA1SDr1eBmFmM1ZhZzZX4cEdOhL3Oh-5EKVg@mail.gmail.[redacted]>
[cross-posted to LUG and opensource mailing lists]
Hi everybody,
let me invite you to GRASS GIS Raleigh meetup which will happen this
Saturday, August 20.
GRASS GIS is an open source geographic information system with current
focus on research and backend processing of geospatial data. One of its
unique features is friendliness towards command line users and Linux/unix
environments. GRASS GIS is written mostly in C and Python and few other
languages or technologies are used where needed.
Our focus is contributing to GRASS GIS in different ways including but not
limited to testing, documenting, wiki editing and coding. This includes
also learning how to actually do it and learning many other things along
the way. If you want to come to learn how you can use GRASS GIS in your
project, that's fine too!
We will meet in the afternoon starting at 1:30 PM in the Hunt library at NC
State Centennial Campus.
See past events and details at
https://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GRASS_GIS_Raleigh_meetups_2016
Come to learn, contribute, or both, (and please contact me if you have any
questions)
