Management of simple tags within file names

This Python script adds or removes tags to file names in the following form:

• file without time stamp in name – tag2.txt

• file name with several tags – tag1 tag2.jpeg

• another example file name with multiple example tags – fun videos kids.mpeg

• 2013-05-09 a file name with ISO date stamp in name – tag1.jpg

• 2013-05-09T16.17 file name with time stamp – tag3.csv

The script accepts an arbitrary number of files (see your shell for possible length limitations).

• Target group: users who are able to use command line tools and who are using tags in file names.

• Hosted and documented on github: https://github.com/novoid/filetags
