Song management

The manage shell script lets you do basic song management and saves you some manual labour. Simply run the script itself or invoke help to get a list of all available commands.

For now the script only supports creating new songs, which it does in an interactive way by asking for important data and filling all needed templates.

./manage help
Usage: ./manage <command> [options]

Commands:
  help        Show this help message and exit
  new <name>  Create a new song with the specified name

Examples:
  ./manage help
  ./manage new [song-name]
