Recently I encountered an interesting problem which I would like to have some feedback on. For ripping I use abcde, which makes a call to the musicbrainz db to retrieve track information. Also, abcde uses this information to make informative file names. However, the program encountered an error when trying to rename and move the files belonging to the following track:
Cold * Fusion - Time Distortion
which is track 3 of this release.
So apparently the wildcard character caused a problem because bash tried to parse it when moving/renaming the resulting flac. Are there any regulations concerning using forbidden characters. If so, what are the conventions for replacing them? Thanks
Here is the error abcde threw at me:
[ERROR] abcde: The following commands failed to run:
