brename is a tool for renaming batches of files based on their existing filenames. For example, you could turn something like “01. Track Name.mp3″ into “Artist - 01 - Track Name.mp3″. Tested on XP, should work on other versions of Windows, and will probably also work on other operating systems.
NB: It can be fiddly with slashes, so it’s probably best to use forward slashes wherever possible.
Yes, opflist. It’s a tool for performing file operations based on a text list. Basically, you have a text file which contains a list of file paths/names. Depending on the parameters, opflist will perform a file operation on a destination directory, based on this list of filenames. For example, it can automatically copy all the files listed into the destination directory.
opflist has been tested on Windows XP. It should work on other versions of Windows, and will probably also work on most other operating systems. Python will not copy resource forks and other metadata for Mac OS, so keep that in mind.
Added an extra layer of error handling, possibly some other stuff.

Omniparrot is an interim solution that you can use while the Jabberwalker is down. It’ll search isoHunt, Torrentspy, and mininova. It’s not particularly good, but it beats having to search the sites individually.
