Tone v0.0.4 – now hackable command line audio tagger, any feedback?
Hey HN, I just wanted to show the progress on my little (maybe useless) side project called tone[1] to get some qualified feedback. tone is a cross plattform command line audio tagger deployed as a single static binary without dependencies, so a wget should be enough to install on any platform (seems not to work on M1 Macs atm... if someone can help here I would really appreciate it). Features: - Supports most common formats (mp3, m4a, flac, ape, etc.) - Most common AND custom metadata fields - Chapter support - Embeddable pictures - Hackable (write your own taggers with scripting language)…
Tone v0.0.4 – now hackable command line audio tagger, any feedback? launched on June 25, 2022 with 23 votes, #892 of 3,005 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches.
In plain words
Tone is a command-line audio tagger that runs as a single static binary without dependencies across platforms. It supports common audio formats including MP3, M4A, FLAC, and APE, along with standard and custom metadata fields, chapters, and embedded pictures. The tool is designed to be hackable, allowing users to write custom taggers using a scripting language. Installation requires only a wget command on most systems, though M1 Mac support was still being developed at launch.

I've seen some interests in (simulation) video games here on HN so I thought I'd share a short version of our story. More than 6 years ago, me and my friend from university were playing around with an idea of making a game we always wanted to play. We worked on it on weekends but the progress was quite slow, especially due to so many dead ends and wasted effort. Eventually however, we solidified our direction and decided to take the risk to resign from our well paid SWE jobs and work on it full time. It took more than a year but yesterday we have finally released it on Steam:…
