Thanks, Edgar. I added most of those links and tidied the page a bit.

It looks like I'm always logged in as the Admin, so I don't think that's it. Strangely the Audacity log shows that LAME was loaded, but it doesn't show specific version numbers like with FFmpeg, if that means anything. If you see "Lame" and a version number in the Libraries Preferences ra...

the developers probably won't want to handle nulls or anything specious in the .aup file (such as a control character) Why? Because the argument went that handling/ignoring specious characters in the .aup could create unpredictability in the project. For example a few Beta versions ago, some files ...

the audacity.cfg wasn't even there. I'm just curious why that is. It only gets created on the first clean exit. If it doesn't exist, Audacity uses factory settings, but if you ever ran the previous 1.2 version of Audacity it will use those settings instead where they still exist in 1.3. If the &quo...

That's right it won't stick, and the doc icons don't move out of the way. It won't take an Audacity app alias either. AND the folder end of the dock doesn't recognize the Audacity folder! I'll bet it would take Logic... Does the icon appear in the dock if you double-click Audacity.app in the folder...

can you not introduce a small field parser that simply throws away any characters Audacity currently doesn't like. I'm not a C+ coder, but I doubt that it is as simple as that. Apart from not being as simple, I'm not sure personally I would want incorrect characters rejected/replaced; I would prefe...

To develop in C/C++ for Windows you need a second download from Microsoft, the "Platform SDK", or the later "Windows SDK". Check here for the one you require. ' Check here ' points to a broken link. What's the right link? I've updated the links a short while ago (but the page is...
