Description

The real songbook shows author/composer info at the bottom of the song page (not after the title) with German labels:

  • "Worte: [name]" instead of current "T: [name]"
  • "Weise: [name]" instead of current "M: [name]"
  • "Worte und Weise: [name]" when the same person wrote both text and melody

These can also be multi-line with additional details (year, translation credits, etc.). Example:

Worte und Weise:  Alexander Gorodninski, 1960
                  ins Deutsche übersetzt: Fotler (Erik Schellhorn) und
                  Igor (Igor Plachonin), 2003

Currently, metadata is rendered with abbreviated labels ("T:", "M:") near the title area.

Scope

  • Config: Option for label style (e.g. metadata_labels: german vs abbreviated)
  • Renderer: Reposition metadata to the bottom of the song's last page
  • Model/Parser: Support multi-line metadata values with continuation lines
