I love some of the scripts you guys have, particularly the ones on the forums. The Itunes info script is great, but I was wondering, how could I go about converting one of these scripts to Bash in Linux?

I have some experience doing semi-automated tagging scripting in Linux, so if you guys could give me the rundown on the scripting base you use, that would give me a head start.

Bash shell, but I'm flexible. I can use anything.
