Métamorphose is now in a subversion repository, this means you can browse the most up to date source code.
While this allows you to have some renaming abilities not available in the released version (you can usually see what is being worked on below), some things will be under development and unstable.
So if renaming some MP3 files makes your monitor explode causing a nearby fuel truck to crash into a gas station during the middle of a hurricane, it's not my fault. You have been warned!
This is wxPython code, no compiling is needed, however:
- For both versions, Windows users can run '_2exe.bat' to create a py2exe distribution.
- For both versions, Windows users can make a NSIS installer.
- Métamorphose 1 also has all files needed to make a deb and RPM package.
