Kludgy, but it works:

#!/bin/ksh
#Assume $title contains "ledzeplin track1 blackdog .MP3"
#and desired output is "ledzeplin__blackdog_songtitle_track#.mp3"
#then:
title="ledzeplin track1 blackdog .MP3"

part1=${title%% *}__
part2=${title% *} ; part2=${part2##* }_
part3=songtitle_
part4=${title#* } ; part4=${part4%% *}_
typeset -l part5=${title##* }
newtitle=${part1}${part2}${part3}${part4}${part5}
print "Original: ${title}"
print "     New: ${newtitle}"
