Not very user friendly

That's true, but it works!

For friendly user only

it has to be changed to "Enabled", and then restart Audacity).

Oh, forgot the restart in my video. Thanks for reminding me. I have added this to the video description.

Very nice idea @bigboss97.
Clever use of "mod-pipe".

Thanks

You mention in your video that $ marks end of line, what happens if the lyrics contain..."Gimme my $100, bro"... : by rap artist 49 cents

In that case, the lyrics should be changed to "hundred dollars" to match the syllables.

Here is the first usable version of my Python script. Not very user friendly
Here is the tutorial

I've almost everything done. But there's one issue... I can't send SetLabel with leading or trailing spaces. They will be trimmed automatically. But this is accepted if it's done via GUI. Is this a bug? It doesn't work in my script. So I tested it with pipeclient.py, same result: Enter command or 'Q...

Thanks Steve.
I think I leave this for the moment. I was hoping that I could send a kind of Undo-begin and Undo-end to bundle the actions

I'm running my python script through mod-script-pipe on v3. The script sends many small actions.
When something goes wrong user can undo the actions in Audacity manually. My question...
Is it possible to send those actions as a kind of block so that each undo would revert a block of actions?

I'm now trying to use AddLabelPlaying:. Unfortunately, playing stops as soon as I apply SetLabel:.
I guess this is a nature of audacity, not a bug. Looks like I have to add all empty labels and then apply SetLabel:.

currently there isn't a GetInfo: option to get the selection time (or even the cursor position). Thanks for your response. Back to the drawing board... :-) My initial idea was... user inserts labels via GUI and the script modifies the labels (by reading existing label track and generate a new one)....

Sorry Steve, I need your help again
I want to populate labels in a selected region. But I couldn't find any parameter in GetInfo: to retrieve the start and end of the current selection.

After NewLabelTrack:, I want to do a Select:. How do I find out what's the latest track number?
