The command "mp3info -n ${track_number} ${filename-mp3}" is used to update or edit the track number metadata of an MP3 file.

Here's a breakdown of the command syntax:

  • "mp3info" is the name of the command-line utility or tool that is being executed.
  • "-n" is an option or flag used with the mp3info command to specify that we want to update the track number metadata.
  • "${track_number}" is a placeholder for the desired track number. You need to replace this with the actual track number you want to assign to the MP3 file.
  • "${filename-mp3}" is another placeholder for the name of the MP3 file you want to edit. You need to replace this with the actual filename of the MP3 file, including the ".mp3" extension.

In summary, with this command, you can update the track number metadata of an MP3 file by providing the desired track number and specifying the filename of the MP3 file you want to modify.
