[»] similar project
by Christian Grothoff - Apr 12th 2004 14:00:45

libextractor is a similar project written in C (and C++ for some formats). libextractor does not support the same number of formats at this point and also does not allow writing of tags, but if you need something similar for C (or Java) this might just be what you want.
