mod-script-pipe

Peter 11Apr19: P1 surely the "M" in "mod-script-pipe" should not be capitalized. It is not capitalized in the app. Connie has now yet ruled on this

• Peter 12Apr19: and you can only do this via a DISPLAYTITLE ...

mod-script-pipe is a GUI plug-in that comes with Audacity that allows Audacity to be driven from an external scripting language such as python

Obtaining mod-script-pipe

Until Audacity 2.3.2 is released, mod-script-pipe is available for enthusiasts in alpha builds of Audacity 2.3.2 from FossHub Audacity-Devel. If you are trying it out, please subscribe to the audacity quality list and ask for further details.

• For Windows it is installed by the 'Windows Installer'
• For Mac it is installed by the 'MacOS DMG'.
• For Linux you will need to build it yourself (on the same day as building Audacity). The forum is best place to get help with this.

FossHub also has a download of 'Scripting Tests' which run through Audacity testing many of the scripting commands.
