Oh! thanks so much, I was using the wrong brackets!! I can now delete
audio at the right of the right bracket if I hit shift+end. But I
still can't manage to delete audio to the left of a cursor. I have
tried inserting a left or right bracket, pressing shift+home and then
delete, but nothing. Oh well.
