Ah, MP3. The most annoying music file format of the last century, now free of patent fees after all.

I also like to have music albums - at least in digital form - in individual parts, but I have been using XRECODE for years (under Windows). It's really nice software, even if it's not free. But that's what we understand here in this forum ;-)

I haven't managed to find a way to REMOVE a cue (split) point in this mp3DirectCut tool
it seems to be a basic operation, but how? To MOVE a point left/right you drag with the right mouse button

Wouldn't it be easier to just delete it from the .cue file with a text editor?

that's what I'm doing but it seems a daft way for a GUI cue editor!

the program author came back to me and said that to remove a cue point, you select it and press E key (instead of DEL or whatever you might have imagined)

this for all those skeptics that say xplorer2 is weird :)

But it IS! The mere fact that other applications also have somewhat unusual key assignments does NOT make xplorer2 a non-weird application.

E could be for excise which is a medical/surgical term for removing something.
