Puddletag on OS X

wgscott

Entry posted by wgscott

Puddletag was developed for Linux, but it is easily ported to OS X. I made a fink package that enables you to install it automatically. If you have fink installed, simply issue the command

 

fink selfupdate
fink -y install puddletag

 

or, if you want to do this quickly with precompiled debian packages,

 

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install puddletag

 

and Bob's your uncle.

 

If you don't have fink installed, you can get a copy of mine, which will put everything in /sw, and an AppleScript launcher app I made in /Applications/Puddletag.app

 

To do that, if you are running 10.9.5 or later, download this big tarball:

 

curl -O  http://scottlab.ucsc.edu/~wgscott/mystuff/sw_puddletag_10.9.5.tgz

 

Then unpack it at the root level, i.e.,

 

cd / 
sudo tar xvfz  ~/Downloads/sw_puddletag_10.9.5.tgz

 

Then, to run it, double-click the launcher in the /Applications directory, or issue the command 

/sw/bin/puddletag

.

Sorry, didn't see this. It seems to be working, i.e., here is how I installed the binary in less than 60 seconds:

 

zsh-% sudo apt-get install puddletag

I installed your package for those of us without fink installed. It's working, but the pop-up windows like the one for numbering tracks or for the actions do not close after use, but only when I shut down python. I've upgraded to os x 10.11, so perhaps that's the problem. The functions all seem to work fine, but it's a bit irritating that the pop-up windows don't close automatically. My original implementation of puddletag stopped working completely when I upgraded to 10.11, so your package is a big help. Thanks.
