Bug#655204: oggenc: ability to parse tags from filenames

[martin f krafft]

Package: vorbis-tools
Version: 1.4.0-1
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/oggenc

It would be great if oggenc allowed me to specify e.g. a regexp that
it uses to extract tag information from the filenames of WAV files,
e.g., using a PCRE and the %-tags from the manpage for simplicity:

  oggenc --parse "(?<n>\d{2})\.\w+(?<t>\W+)\.wav" --genre=rock *.wav

For files like "01. First Track.wav" and "02. Finale.wav" would
produce files appropriately tagged with filenumber, title, and
genre.

An easier way would be scanf-style %-parsing, but that's less
flexible.

Thanks for your consideration.
