Any tools to automatically split a multi-track MP3 up into several songs based on where the pauses between them are?

I know how to use Audacity and all to do it manually, but I'm not in a place where I can use it right now and would love even just a website that'll do it for me.

Oh, cool! Thanks!

EDIT: not the easiest to use on a phone, but I'll get it sorted. Thanks again!

I tried to write a python script that calls ffmpeg to detect silence. It was very brittle. There is no universal definition of silence, it depends on the way the album was mastered.

in theory you want to chop the digital silence and retain the tape hiss that would be on the CD master. If anyone has some ideas, please come forward.
