RE: Feature Request: Tag Update Tag Referencing
I think I confused you by finishing my second-last post talking about the manual update of tags I'm undertaking in the absence of an automatic method. This is a script that trawls through my classical files and, finding a Compilation tag set to true, copies the Composer (in first last format) to the start of the Title tag. Saves file.

The point I'm trying to make (as per first post) is that it would be great if this could be done within MinimServer without actually changing any files' tags. Still by referring to the Compilation tag, I figured that maybe MinimServer could interpret logic in the Title.displayformat. Something like Title.displayFormat={($compilation==1?$composerSmile^^ • $title^$movementnumber^: ^. $movement}. I'm making up the syntax, but you get the drift? If the file's Compilation tag is true (1), write Composer, if not, write nothing (blank after the colon). If the result of this bracketed expression is nothing, ignore this expression's suffix also ( •), but continue with Title, Movement, etc., etc.

Maybe I confused you further by insisting on using these Compilation tags, which I'm not sure I know what to do with otherwise! They seem to be asking for something to do...
