simple (bash) file tagging utility

444 lines of pure bash tagging goodness!

Usage:  tag OPTIONS FILENAME [TAG ...]
       - tag FILENAME with the TAGs (if none, list current tags on FILENAME)
       untag OPTIONS FILENAME [TAG ...]
       - remove TAGs (or ALL if none specified) from FILENAME and list removed

(currently, you need some aliases to make this work)

This is a very raw (alpha, hehe) version of my new invention, but it works: I can tag and I can untag, and I can browse tags in my (unix) filesystem.

It has plenty of info inside, so please take your time and look at it.

Comments are much more than welcome.
