# - it’s an empty string if you have not yet used transcription in the current session – if transcribing, it contains the current transcription file path – if you have previously transcribed and now stopped, it does not revert to an empty string
# On this last point, this means a non-empty transcript file path does not mean you are currently transcribing.

#requires -version 2.0
