MP3 Tag Clinic v2.2

Overview:

Rename files based upon ID3v1 or ID3v2 tag data, or
create tag data based upon existing file names. Display 
and edit all tags, all tag fields, for all files in a 
folder at one time. Edit individually or en-masse - all 
with ease and speed. Highly customizable with a multitude 
of auto-editing features.

System Requirements:

Separate versions for Windows 9X/ME & NT/2000/XP. 
Minimum screen resolution: 800 x 600.  
Some tag list-to-file features require OLE server.  
There are no specific minimum memory requirements. 
However, once available memory for tag data is exhausted, 
performance will begin to degrade as data begins to be 
laid off onto hard disk. For a PC with 64 Mb memory,
for example, this might typically happen around three or 
four thousand tags. 

This is Shareware and freely distributable in its 
unmodified form. 

==============================================================

Installation:

Unzip clnic22.zip to a directory of your choice. Run 
SETUP.EXE and follow the instructions. You will be given 
an opportunity to specify which folder in which to install 
the program.
