    <desc>Using <app>EasyTAG</app> for the first time</desc>
  </info>

  <title>Start using <app>EasyTAG</app></title>

  <p>When you start <app>EasyTAG</app> for the first time, it will search your
  <file>Music</file> directory or your home directory for audio files. If you
  wish to skip the search, press the <gui style="button">Stop</gui> button.</p>

  <p><app>EasyTAG</app> may apply some automatic corrections to some of your
  music files. These files will be highlighted in bold. These are normally
  updates to the tag metadata containers and will not be applied until you save
  the changes.</p>

  <p>To save these changes, select all the files that have been affected and
  press <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>S</key></keyseq>. It is not possible to
  undo the automatic changes but they will not be saved unless you select the
  file and save it. You can disable some of the automatic updates in the
  <gui style="tab">ID3 Tag Settings</gui> tab in the
  <gui style="dialog">Preferences</gui> dialog.</p>
