New Last.fm Tagger Written in RubyCocoa

So, I’m trying my hand at Cocoa, namely RubyCocoa. Objective-C is a bit out of my grasp right now. If I start needing big performance boosts, I’ll go that route. In the meantime, writing RubyCocoa apps is insanely fun. I wrote this basic tagger in 2 days (roughly 6 hours) and it works pretty well! If you plan on trying out this app, create a small playlist with the name ‘lastfmtagger’ and put a few albums in there. Problems I am aware of:

  1. Can’t load huge iTunes library/playlist yet without taking forever to load
  2. App craps out if the file is missing in iTunes when trying to write
  3. Some more I can’t think of right now…
Give it a shot, and let me know what you think. Here’s a screenshot.
