I have created a Google Code project for the lastfm-tagger.

Check it out.

I have known about Fortune for several years now, and I randomly thought about it today. I wondered, could I have fortune give me a fortune each time I open a new terminal window. After a little digging and worrying about it being complicated, I simply tried to just place the path of fortune into my .profile. Voila! Now, every time I open Terminal, I am greeted with a neat little fortune.

In order to do this, you'll need macports installed.

If you already have them installed, simply install fortune:

sudo port install fortune

Then, edit your ~/.profile

mate ~/.profile

Add the path to fortune at the end of the file:

/opt/local/bin/fortune

I love it! :)

I just implemented a feature to sort artists by name. I got a comment on my build.last.fm project page that commented about how the tagger works when artists in iTunes are sorted by name. Instead of relying on iTunes, I am now sorting by artist name in the actual code.

Not a huge change, but slightly significant. I am working on win32 compatibility also. If anyone can help, that would be great!

Ideally, I want to check the ENV constant for a string of /windows/i and then load win32ole gem and then abstract the iTunes interface to handle it properly.
