It's nice to see a big happy WOOOOHOOOO!

If I remember correctly, my command line is something like this:

> -8 -V -T "artist=%a" -T "title=%t" -T "album=%g" -T "date=%y" -T
> "tracknumber=%n" -T "genre=%m" %s

Maybe give it a go and see how you get on?

In case you're interested, I'll have a go at giving a rough explanation
of what it all does by highlighting sections in bold and commenting on
them.

> *-8* -V -T "artist=%a" -T "title=%t" -T "album=%g" -T "date=%y" -T
> "tracknumber=%n" -T "genre=%m" %s

Set the compression level of the FLAC file. People increasingly favour
"8" with the new version of FLAC.

> -8 *-V* -T "artist=%a" -T "title=%t" -T "album=%g" -T "date=%y" -T
> "tracknumber=%n" -T "genre=%m" %s

I think this verifies the FLAC file as it is being created. Some people
argue that it's not really necessary. I just include it because everyone
else does. Baaaa. (That's an impression of a sheep!)

> -8 -V *-T "artist=%a"* -T "title=%t" -T "album=%g" -T "date=%y" -T
> "tracknumber=%n" -T "genre=%m" %s

Adds an artist tag to the FLAC file. The tag is labelled "artist" and
contains the name of the artist as it has been extracted from EAC.

> -8 -V -T "artist=%a" -T *"title=%t" -T "album=%g" -T "date=%y" -T
> "tracknumber=%n" -T "genre=%m"* %s

Adds a whole load of other tags for track title, album name, date,
track number, genre. Again all these tags will have been extracted by
EAC.

> -8 -V -T "artist=%a" -T "title=%t" -T "album=%g" -T "date=%y" -T
> "tracknumber=%n" -T "genre=%m" *%s*

Very important! This is the name of the source WAV file that is to be
compressed.
