hey, so i save all music that comes out of picard into one of 12 month-coded folders in my music collection, i.e., unsurprisingly, I just changed the Picard destination directory to /library/music/04-new.music

can I make that something like `$(date +%whatever gives me ## month)` ?

can I make that something like `/library/music/$(date +%whatever gives me ## month)-new.music` ?

`$ cd /librar/music/"$(date +%m)-new.music"` actually works because i set bash to excuse small typos like that.

iconoclast_hero, try something like $month($datetime(\%Y-\%m-\%d)) to get the month to enter in your file naming script.

or possibly just $datetime(\%m)

maybe that is a much better way of doing it than how i am.

can the file naming script decide what directory files are saved in? i.e., i can set `Destination directory` in the Picard File Naming Options dialog to /library/music and have the naming script change the location based on the month?

Picard always goes to these directories so it's really not that big of a deal that this is going to be hard to figure out later.

i'll try to find a place to remind myself that's what's happening.
hi all, it looks like the general rate limit for the MB public api (like just GET http://musicbrainz.org/ws/2/release/123) is one request per second? is that right?
