## Why does this exists?

One night I wanted to rename a bunch

of bad formatted musics to add the

author name and the album at the

beginning of each files, but since I'm

a developer, instead of renaming each

song one after the other I decided to

spent a night creating this software.

I wanted to use a simple custom format

language, so I created an intuitive

syntax to easily rename a bunch of

files.

Since I'm relatively a beginner in C++

I spent some time fixing errors, mostly

in the parser.

## How the custom format works?

The custom format is made to be simple.

For now, it is simple but relatively

limited.

I plan to add support for standard

regexes too.

The custom format support 2 types of

things : VARs and TEXTs.

- VARs are undetermined text elements with undetermined length and content.

An example of var element would be

"{name}".

- TEXTs are determined text elements

with determined content and length.

An example of text element would be

"foo".

The format is supposed to be intuitive

enough that it needs no complex

explanations, and can be used with

curfmt help alone.
