From the region context menu, choose <kbd class="menu">Edit &gt; Strip
Silence</kbd> to detect silence (based on a user-chosen threshold in
<abbr title="Decibels relative to Full Scale">dBFS</abbr>), split a

automatically trim the ends of a region. The dialog looks like this:

to show silent segments and report the number and durations of the
shortest segments.
