audacity disappeared after boot because it was in the temporary folder /tmp - if you want audacity to load automatically each boot, you need to move audacity.uci to your /mydsl folder

It is not in the /tmp folder

it shows up when I run dsl@box:/~$ ls -al

is that the mydsl folder?

I did #mv audacity.uci /mydsl and got no such directory

I suggest you have a look at the mydsl section of the wiki

You need to create the /mydsl folder somewhere permanent, for example /mnt/hda1/mydsl on hd or /mnt/sda1/mydsl if you boot from usb stick.

Since /tmp/audacity.uci was lost when you rebooted, you will need to download it again before you can move it to the /mydsl folder - or, you can create the /mydsl folder, "cd" to it and issue the "wget" command from there.

I see it as .audacity after I run $ ls -a

That isn't the application itself. It is probably a configuration file (note the dot at the beginning). It remains after reboot because it's likely being added to your backup archive.
