id3 tag reader and file name editor?

[kaushik]

Hi all,
i am new to perl scripting. actually i didnt feel the need for it till
now. but now i think i need it. the problem is: i have a directory in
which i have thousands of mp3 songs(all in one directory). The file
names of the mp3files are incorrect. But the information in the ID3 tag
are proper with title, album name and genre entries. now what is, if a
run a script, the id3 tag of a file should be read, rename the file
name of the file to what is there in the title field and save it in a
folder(new/existing) of name as in Album entry. is it possible?
i have tried installing MP3::Tag module. but it is giving errors in
installation. some make file error.

i'm getting this error message----
"
This program comes with several scripts which I would try to install in
directory C:\Perl\bin.
To skip, rerun with option -n given to Makefile.PL.
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good

'nmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

Unless you have a development environment on your Windows box, you're
generally stuck with pre-built modules. Hopefully MP3::ID3v1 will meet
your needs:
