Wow, I never knew that! You're correct that the full "Transcription Toolbar" has never been enabled in an Audacity release. Now that the code is becoming more modular, perhaps it could be made available as an optional module. I've seen quite a few requests on the Audacity forum for features similar to this. In the current version of Audacity, I think that the "Label Sounds" plug-in can fulfil the "labelling" aspects, though your C++ version looks like an easier workflow for anyone using these features frequently.

This is fascinating Shane - I assume that this code is still lurking in the codebase all this time, but just turned off
