I think you are missing my point. If I have copied twenty cd's to the hard
drive and then make compilations from these by moving the selected tracks
that I want into there own directories and ordering them then I think a
visual solution will always be quicker for this sort of task. Even if I
could remember all the names of all the tracks it would still be quicker
than writing a script to copy the ones I want and then rename them. Not
meaning to start a war amongst the shell gods but not everything can be
cured with a "quick script".
