3. Suggestion: Add an "audacity-doc" package, which contains the manual (http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/unzipping_the_manual.html), to the daily-build PPA http://launchpad.net/~audacity-team/+archive/ubuntu/daily. You would need to raise that with the PPA maintainer (Benjamin Drung ...

2. How to switch from waveform to spectrogram display doesn't seem to be indicated on http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/Spectrogram_View. True, but it is mentioned at the top of the main "Audio Tracks" page: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/Audio_Tracks There is quite a lot of cross-re...

The problem is not the FFT but the GUI and the ability to deal with various sound input sources. That's why I thought an Audacity plugin approach might be reasonable.
