Fix first letter caps #307

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Beets should have an option to force Uppercase Every Word Except the Usual 
Excluded (in tags and filenames), the usual words are words like {the, in, a, 
for, …}

Maybe a good idea for a plugin?

This should definitely be encapsulated in a plugin. For most purposes, 
MusicBrainz's capitalization is more correct than any algorithm could provide, 
but this would be useful for "as-is" imports that don't get tagged by 
MusicBrainz.

In my experience, especially non-English songs (I've got quite a few Dutch, 
German, French and Japanese songs), are wrongly capitalized by MusicBrainz...

The algorithm is pretty straightforward I guess, capitalize every word exept if 
a list...

Sounds good; if there are mistakes, then that's a good reason to make a plugin.

Also, FYI, if you know of specific mistakes in the MB database, I'm sure other 
users would appreciate it if you edited the database to make it correct. :)
