I needed to add the TCMP tag to some of my compilation albums on linux.
As you say, EasyTag doesn't seem to support that yet.  I had a good
look around and couldn't find any other tagging tools that would do it
either.

Here is what I came up with instead.  It's a bit clunky but it does
work.  I add a TLAN tag with id3v2 which adds an ID3 record of the same
length as the TCMP record. Then I use bbe to tweak the TLAN tag into a
TCMP tag:


Code:
--------------------
    
  id3v2 --TLAN "11" song.mp3
  bbe -e 
's/TLAN\x00\x00\x00\x03\x00\x00\x0011/TCMP\x00\x00\x00\x03\x00\x00\x001\x00/' < 
song.mp3 > new-song.mp3
  
--------------------

I'm using Ubuntu 5.10 which already had id3v2  installed, but I had to
download and install bbe from 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bbe-/

Hope that helps. And if anyone knows a linux tagging tool that will do
this please let me know...
