lookup acoustID automatically #17

It would be great if there were a convenient way to get an acoustID (or acoustID scores) from a fingerprinted file. Taking the output of fpcalc and plugging it into the web API is doable but annoying, and it would be nice if fpcalc (optionally) did that.

Some other meta-tool that processed fpcalc’s output would do the job too, of course.

If you don't mind Python, you might want to check out the Python bindings: https://github.com/sampsyo/pyacoustid

The package includes a simple script (aidmatch.py) that calculates the fingerprint and queries the Web service in one fell swoop.

fpcalc is intended to be an example of using the libraries. It should be kept simple so that its educational value is maximized. I believe Picard and Jaikoz now incorporate acoustid lookups in their workflows.

I recommend close won't fix for this one.
