I want to add tag 'New Music' to a chunk of my collection that already has one or two genre tags applied. I cant just add a new genre tag in extnded tags as it appears to overright \< keep \> with the new tag. Im using kodi and would be best if I could simply write currentgenretag\New Music Whilst im here what does \< keep \> do anyway? ---
