Don’t know if anybody had already posted a complete $unset tag list for Picard, I couldn’t find it so hopefully this helps some Google/Discourse searchers in future: https://community.metabrainz.org/t/only-set-a-sin…

when should a regular vs. unicode slash be used?
2023-01-30 03051, 2023
derwin
for example, should it be "b/w" or "b∕w"?

no idea! That second b/w looks messed up haha

the former is apparently "fraction slash" and the latter "division slash"

" DIVISION SLASH is in the mathematical operators block. It is intended to be used when representing the mathematical division operator, e.g. in mathematical formulas. "

" FRACTION SLASH is in the general punctuation block. It is intended to be used when representing a fraction. Use it when you might say, out loud, "one half". You might use it in nonmathematical contexts, e.g. "1⁄2 cup of olive oil". "

huh. that suggests that pretty much all cases on mb should be "FRACTION SLASH"

Interesting. Seems like it

bleh, I had been using "DIVISION SLASH" for some cases.
2023-01-30 03055, 2023
derwin
that bums me out because the DIVISION version has the advantage of being a valid character in both unix and windows paths.

ooh sneaky. Easy to swap out the slash in a Picard file naming script though, hopefully?

You might use it in nonmathematical contexts, e.g. "1⁄2 cup of olive oil". <- but cooking is totally maths

I bet there's some correct divisions in MB titles, but probably few :)
