That is an oxymoron.
The language used in Audacity documentation is Americanised English. Personally I'd prefer that they used English, but at least it is not all written in abbreviations and smilies.
All right, I was having a cranky moment and opened a can of worms.
My apologies to suunchild for taking this off-topic. Please feel free to ask if you have further questions (and if you possibly can, please use whole words as that helps my "condition").

Sorry for this extra aside, but that is hilarious.
The first line of their home page says:
"RTFM specializes in expert technical consulting for difficult problems,"
I wonder what their company motto is.

I would like to thank steve for one of the most entertaining moments in the Audacity forum.
And my suggestion was meant for serious. See their
