Arguments after -tagsfromfile apply to copying tags from the specified file.Ģ. It is possible, but you need to know some details about how this is implemented to understand what is happening:ġ. I never intended -tagsfromfile to be mixed with -fileNUM.

I'm sure this is all as clear as mud, but post your questions here if anyone has any.

a '+' before the target tag name indicates the value is added to the list of queued values for writing, while a '+' after the target tag name indicates that the queued values should be added to the list of values that already exist in the file), which is part of the reason why I originally implemented -addTagsFromFile instead of doing it this way. Unfortunately, I realize that the syntax is somewhat confusing (ie. The -addTagsFromFile option was incongruous because it was applied to all source tags from a given file, but logically the option should have been associated with the target tag being written.

I have quietly removed -addTagsFromFile from the documentation beginning with version 12.59 (even though it will continue to be supported for backward compatibility). This supersedes the -addTagsFromFile option which performed this operation on all tags copied from a specific file. One more thing I didn't mention that came with this new feature was the ability to add tags to queued lists on a per-tag basis using the -+TAG
