This is a powerful and feature-rich program for tagging audio files in the most common formats. It has quickly become my preferred utility for this. There are some significant flaws in the Mac OS port, however.
The one which causes the most difficulty is the lack of an "Edit" menu in the main menu bar. This is standard Mac OS interface design, and it puzzles me why the program commands have not been appropriately mapped to this menu, particularly since the contextual menu (right click | ctl click) is so well-implemented.
The key bindings are non-standard to Mac OS. Many of them can be adjusted in the "Keyboard" pane of "System Preferences". Those that would normally appear in the "Edit" menu cannot, because there is none.
Editing each tag is a three-step process that requires typing or pasting the information into a field, clicking on a check box (or using a contextual command) to enter the info into the memory buffer, and then saving to disk, which actually writes the tag to the file. It would be convenient to assign a key binding to the second step, but because there is no menu entry for it, it is impossible to do so, nor is it possible to discover if one is already assigned.
This one omission makes the learning curve much steeper than it ought to be for what is otherwise a well-designed tag editor.
