Re-hi Robert,

(this is optional)

You may also a new option to [Additional settings] dialog.
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~audio-recorder/audio-recorder/trunk/view/head:/src/settings.c

New option could be a checkbox with text:
 [x] Add new recordings to recent files list.

Some users may not want to add recordings to the xbel recent files.

The new option can be of type BOOLEAN. See
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~audio-recorder/audio-recorder/trunk/view/head:/data/org.gnome.audio-recorder.gschema.xml

Cumprimentos
