The setlist can be just a list of songs with song separators; you do not need to specify the end of the sides. When no end of side delimiters are present splice will automatically calculate the end of sides by putting an equal number of songs on each side. Splice just needs to know the end of each side specified. It does NOT matter if it is the end of side A of the first tape or side B of the second tape. Splice figures out what the tape number is and which side on the fly.
CD labels are treated differently than tape labels. When the number of discs is 1, splice prints the setlist center on the back cover. When the number of CDs is greater than 1, the songs are evenly split over the left-hand and right-hand sides of the label. This allows for jewel cases that hold 3,4, or even 6 discs. "|" can be used to indicate a side of the page break. Only the first "|" is honored, the rest are ignored.
The continuation characters (> and /) can be embedded in a song by using their "escaped" version. > gives a >, while &slash; yields a /. In both cases, the "escape" sequence can be surrounded by any amount of whitespace, which is ignored. Songs can be rendered in italics by surrounding the song in brackets, {}. This is generally used for small fillers.
UseTimes
If the useTimes option is specified either on the command line or in the the config file, splice treats every other song as the amount of time for the song. For code-sample:
Led Zeppelin - New York City 7/21/73
2 CDs
_
Rock and Roll/3:15/Celebration Day/2:30/Bring It On Home/1:10/...
The resulting label will have the song length next to each song. All "extra" whitespace will be stripped out. Extra whitespace is defined as more than one space separating any two words. Blank lines can be inserted anywhere.
Filler sets are those short sets that are used to fill-up a disc or tapes. Filler can be also used to put two artists together on one label.Filler setlist are separated by +.
All examples are generated with the following command line unless otherwise stated:-d -w9999. The -d creates a DAT label (they are smaller and easier to display on a web page). the -w9999 is used to turn off the song wrap; this is done also to save space. for a full explanation of the command line options see the main splice page.

There is not a side break within the Zeppelin setlist, so the Amos set is displayed in a column by itself.

{Train}/Intro/It's About You/I Am/She's on Fire/Light My Fire/Meet Virginia/Drops of Jupiter/Eggplant/Free
Vertical Horizon and Train both performed in Chicago on 12/2/2000. This label is for both bands together on a single DAT tape (or disc).
Filler title option was turned off, so splice would not print Train's information at the top of the second column. The exact command line was splice -d -w9999 -ofillerTitle=0.
Aliases allow long song titles to be shorten to simple easy to remember strings. The location of the alias file is stored in the configuration file
Here is an excerpt from my alias file:
These shortcuts are case-sensitive. You can only specify one song for shortcut. This another one to get a slash into a song title, e.g.
