As to why I want to do this, my filing system makes more sense to me if I can see the title of the song in the file name when I am constructing playlists.
Of course it's your choice in the end. But all such information belongs naturally to the tags. There're many restrictions about filename characters/length (which are more stringent if you want to burn on a CD) and you can't really expect to fit all the relevant information about a track into the filename (track no, composer, artist, ...).
Any good audio player would show the tags properly so I don't see the need.
Actually I want to convert some of my lossless music encoded into individual tracks into single file.
I am sure there's a far easier and consistent way of achieving your goals without splitting your APE files. One of them could be creating APL files (APE track access files) and naming them as the title name. APL files is a way of bookmarking into a single APE file and can be replaygained/tagged. You can then play APL files under WinAmp/fb2k -- it's no different than having files for individual tracks.
