In Terminal:

shntool split -f CUE_filename.cue -t ‘%n. %t’ -o flac APE_filename.ape

P.S.

‘%n. %t’ means number and title, more information:

-t fmt  name output files in user-specified format based on CUE sheet fields.
(%p = performer, %a = album, %t = track title, %n = track number)
CUE_filename.cue shoud be utf-8 encoded if it includes non-ascii characters, e.g. Chinese or Japanese.

you can use iconv to convert files, e.g.

iconv -t utf-8 -f SHIFT-JIS firstsnow.cue -o firstsnow_utf8.cue
if it occured that “shntool [split]: error: value not in bytes, m:ss, m:ss.ff, or m:ss.nnn format: [.001]“, check the format of CUE file, e.g. if its first line is CATALOG 4540774404049, which is invalidated, delete it or add “REM ” before.
