reposting what i said in another thread, but gave this it's own thread so more people might see it. let me know what to do, i may as well finish this thing with what you guys say
i wrote an applescript studio app for shntool, flac, shorten (v2.5.1 with seek tables). it's a graphical program like macflac but with many more options and features (like shntool sector boundary fixes, etc) built in. it can be found on the "files" section of the laptop-tapers yahoogroups (groups.yahoo.com/group/laptop-tapers)
i never really finished it because i couldn't decide what else to make it do, but it exists and i use it all the time.
it does this:
1. convert to/from shn. when converting to shn, it appends seek tables (unlike the "carbon shorten" doug hornig did
2. convert to/from flac
3. make md5s or flac fingerprints, depending on if it's shn or flac
4. shntool length and info commands
5. fixes files for sector boundary issues. the input files are fixed and can be output in
a. aiff
b. wav
c. shn
d. flac
if you fix and output to shn, it gives the option to create a single md5 or a set of md5s for each disc. so basically, you cut tracks, name files according to whatever it is (band2003-10-08d1t01, etc) and then drop the files onto this app. choose fix, output to shn, make disc md5s and it'll fix all boundary errors, convert to SHN, and create an md5 for each disc. all in 1 shot. i like that
tell me what else to make it do and i'll work on it tonight and this weekend. i have a plane ride fri and tues to do work on it, but i could do a lot of it tonight while i watch baseball...
