If we can only implement one choice I think it would have to be "never prompt" because otherwise it won't fully stop the "complaints". Conversely, "never prompt" is far more likely to lead to complaints about lost data. Personally I'd rather have people complain about ...

Unfortunately, with the prompt to save (the "nag") removed, this bug occurs much more frequently (about 90% of the time on my machine): http://bugzilla.audacityteam.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1545 I don't know why this happens, I guess it's a race condition and 'not stopping to nag' is tipping th...

Nice set of curves.

I presume you're having a laugh with "-0.199999999999999"

That looks about right.
