The problem persists using the testing version of the package. I believe the problem with running praat is that my system lacks a monitor. I can only access it through the terminal, but it crashes, even when I only try to run a script that has no GUI-based IO. For a specific instance, I ran the command praat --open "getPitchTier.Praat", where getPitchTier.Praat contains the following contents:
Read from file: "sentence.wav" selectObject: "Sound sentence" To Manipulation: 0.01, 75, 600 Extract pitch tier Save as PitchTier spreadsheet file: "oldPitchTier.PitchTier" However, praat crashes regardless of input given. - Alex On Fri, May 5, 2017 at 8:21 AM, Rafael Laboissière <raf...@debian.org> wrote: > Control: tags -1 + moreinfo unreproducible > > Thank you for the bug report.
