audacity_installer downloads and installs Audacity and the following Audacity plugins:
- LADSPA plug-ins
- LAME plug-in
- FFMPEG plug-in
audacity_installer looks in the directory where audacity_installer.exe is for any files it needs before attempting to download them. If it does download a file, it will attempt to save a copy of the file in this same directory.
audacity_installer adds the installation directory (typically
C:\Program Files\Audacity) to your PATH environment variable.
Note: you are responsible to verify that each program you install using audacity_installer is designed to work in your environment. If you are unsure, then please visit http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ for more information.
