format using the "Import Labels..." command in
the Project Menu.
Export Multiple... - lets you split your project
into multiple files all in one step. You can either
split them vertically (one new file per track), or
horizontally (using labels in a Label Track to
indicate the breaks between exported files.
Page Setup - configure how Audacity will print
out the track waveforms using the Print option,
and what printer to use.

audacity showing the tracks and waveforms.
Exit (Quit) - closes all windows and exits
Audacity, prompting you to save any unsaved
changes first.

Undo - This will undo the last editing operation
you performed to your project. Audacity
supports full unlimited undo - meaning you can
undo every editing operation back to when you
opened the window.
Redo - This will redo any editing operations
that were just undone. After you perform a new
editing operation, you can no longer redo the
operations that were undone.

places it on the clipboard. Only one "thing" can
be on the clipboard at a time, but it may
contain multiple tracks.

clipboard without removing it from the project.
Paste - Inserts whatever is on the clipboard at
the position of the selection or cursor in the
project, replacing whatever audio data is
currently selected, if any.
Trim - Removes everything to the left and right
of the selection.
Delete - Removes the audio data that is
currently selected without copying it to the
clipboard.

selected, replacing it with silence instead of
removing it.
Split - Moves the selected region into its own
track or tracks, replacing the affected portion of
the original track with silence. See the figure

beginning of the selected tracks to the cursor
position.
Select ... > Cursor to End - Selects from the
cursor position to the end of the selected
tracks.
Find Zero Crossings - Modifies the selection
slightly so that both the left and right edge of
the selection appear on a positive-slope zero
crossing. This makes it easier to cut and paste
audio without resulting in an audible clicking
sound.
Selection Save - Remembers the current
selection (or cursor position), allowing you to
restore it later.
Selection Restore - Restores the cursor
position to the last position saved by "Selection
Save".
