If you need a Manual for that 2.0.5 version, please download https://storage.googleapis.com/google-c ... -2.0.5.zip, then extract the "help" folder to /usr/share/audacity.
For VST support in Audacity, I suggest you uninstall the Mint-packaged version of Audacity 2.0.5 then install the Ubuntu Handbook 2.1.2 PPA version of Audacity from https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuhandbook1/ ... u/audacity. Install the PPA version that corresponds to the version of Ubuntu that your version of Mint is based on - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_L ... t_releases.
If the 2.1.2 PPA lacks a Manual, you can obtain it from https://www.fosshub.com/Audacity.html/a ... -2.1.2.zip.

Re: How to install VST plug-ins?
Thank you! I installed Audacity 2.1.2, then I pressed Effect -> Add / Remove plug-ins ... and enabled GSnap. It works.For VST support in Audacity, I suggest you uninstall the Mint-packaged version of Audacity 2.0.5 then install the Ubuntu Handbook 2.1.2 PPA version of Audacity from https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuhandbook1/ ... u/audacity.
Are there any translations of manuals?
