OPTIONS

       Ex Falso may be given a directory to open on the command line.

TIED TAGS

       Many  places  in Ex Falso allow you to use "tied tags". Tied tags are two tag names joined
       together with a "~" like "title~version" or  "album~part".  Tied  tags  result  in  "nice"
       displays even when one of the tags is missing; for example, "title~version" will result in
       Title - Version when a version tag is present, but only Title when one isn't. You can  tie
       any number of tags together.

RENAMING FILES

       Ex  Falso  allows  you  to rename files based on their tags. In some cases you may wish to
       alter the filename depending on whether some tags are present or missing, in  addition  to
       their values. A common pattern might be

       <tracknumber>. <title~version>

       You can use a '|' to only text when a tag is present:

       <tracknumber|<tracknumber>. ><title~version>

       You can also specify literal text to use if the tag is missing by adding another '|':

       <album|<album>|No Album> - <title>
