Many of the questions on the -help mailing list are asked a lot. A FAQ would be useful -- if we post a link to it next to the -help mailing list information, we can hopefully convince people to read it before posting, to the benefit of both parties (we don't have to answer the same questions over and over, they get more detailed responses). I will do this over Christmas break (along with a bunch of other things I've said I'll do), unless someone else wants to first. Essential entries: How do I get "LAME?" The RPM doesn't work. Audacity has crashed on me. What can I do? A list of known bugs and workarounds where they exist, as well as a reasonable guess of when they'll be fixed. Unrelated: I compiled out of CVS last night -- the build was flawless (yay!) but there were no items under the effects menu. This persisted even when there was an audio track present, and even when audio was selected. Joshua -- Joshua Haberman <jo...@ha...> |

Great idea! I created "faq.htm" in the help/ directory. I added a few questions, but haven't even written any answers yet. I'll start on answers soon - but if anyone wants to jump in and write some, and/or add more questions, go ahead! - Dominic Joshua Haberman wrote: > Many of the questions on the -help mailing list are asked a lot.
