# Custom filename munging:
-# By default, abcde will do the following to CDDB data to get a useful
-# filename:
-# * Translate colons to a space and a dash for Windows compatibility
-# * Eat control characters, single quotes, and question marks
-# * Translate spaces and forward slashes to underscores
-# To change that, redefine the mungefilename function.
-# mungefilename receives the CDDB data (artist, track, title, whatever)
-# as $1 and outputs it on stdout.
+# By default, abcde will do the following to CDDB data to get a useful filename:
+# 1. Delete any dots preceding the title (first sed command)
+# 2. Replace all spaces with an underscore (second sed command). Simply remove
+# this if you prefer spaces.
+# 3. Delete a grab bag of characters which variously Windows and Linux do not permit
+# (tr command). Remove any of these from the list if you wish to actually use them.
