tagnavi logical OR?

I see you made a patch that got accepted @ (one_of).

What about a new operator "begins_with_one_of"?

"A"   -> artist ? artist $ "A|The A" -> album  -> title = "f_browse"

Then tagnavi could easily handle the "The " issue, or "A ", or similar for any other language, too (provided the first-level A,B,C...menus were used like you guys did).

Thoughts?

I think someone did; trawl through the tag cache threads, I'm sure there was a mention of another patch (never committed) that did that very thing.

A more flexible solution would be the ability to combine operators:

"A"   -> artist ? artist ^@ "A|The A" -> album  -> title = "f_browse" (starts with one-of...)
"blah"   -> album ? filename !$@ "mp3|ogg" -> album  -> title = "f_browse" (does not end with one-of...)

I already made one. :)

But the approach has a problem with the letter T.

combining operators, yeah, that was my first thought, too. That would open up a lot of possibilities

roolku:
problem with T? Why, because 'The' starts with 'T'? I can't quite figure out the logic breakdown - do you think there is a solution (even if it is a special case)?


Well, in the meantime, I think I'll try hijacking the Composer field. Just put an A,B,C,... in there and base the filters off that.

e.g.
ABBA  - Composer = A
The Arcade Fire - Composer = A
