Repository for neat file name string patterns and tagger script snippets

I mostly only ever deal with Flac and DSF files but it would be nice to have a script that dealt with all just for completeness. I’ve pretty much given up on the above which is based on the following:

It’s much better because it is commented well and easy to understand. I have been playing with that now which is helping me learn along with reading and trying to understand rdswift’s script and others on here. I still haven’t quite got my head around what $noop is, which at first I thought was a way to comment out but then seen it being used as part of the code. I have tried searching for info on here with no luck.

I’m making some really good headway now though, spent the last 3 days and nights messing with scripts. My albums now look like the following example:

1971 - Greatest Hits - [CBS] [S69011] [GB] [12 Inch Vinyl] [1971-11] 24bit 96kHz

Next I want to try and integrate _isClassical with it’s own Classical directory Like Various and Soundtracks and make use of @rdswift Additional Artists Variables. The Last.fm.ng plugin I can’t install for the life of me on my Mac. I think there might be an error in the script path to the user Library > Preferences > MusicBrainz > Picard > plugins, I haven’t looked deeper into it so using the standard Last.fm one built in and have the script set to an Artists directory.

I have reminded myself now why I hate coding; time and frustration spent just like with html, javascripts and other code. I am wired now from lack of sleep. Passed my sleepy stage and now awake again when I should be trying to get some sleep. I’m turning into a vampire LOL I will crash and burn after about 4 days and 3 nights with cat naps in-between.
