Intro

Peter 18Jul16: This is a page to act as a workbench for my testing on W10 and macOS.

Some DEVEL FIXMADE bugs get "parked" by me as they involve downloading plug-ins from sites I know nothing about - I am not prepared to risk that.

See the Talk page for bugs resolved in earlier releases.

Devel Fix-Made

None

Parked - because I don't have the wherewithal to test these

None

To be tested

• P4 1441 - Mac: Imported file names containing '/' or "\" change the slash to ':' in the trackname (and in the project window header)
• P4 2416 - Mac: Grabbers of other toolbars get "pushed" when dragging another toolbar over them
• P4 2097 - Mac: File list ignored at the command line

What's to be done about this/these

• P2 2437 - Mac: "Open with" fails when Audacity is running - OK on my Big Sur Mac and Cliff's Mojave Mac - fails on Bill's Catalina Mac
• P5 866 - FFmpeg: Audacity rejects FFmpeg in PATH/doesn't search PATH if invalid libs are in FFmpeg path - I don't want to mess with my FFmpeg config
