I finally figured out what the problem was.  I started audacity at the
shell prompt with the name of my wav file as a parameter.  After doing
more searching, I found that audacity will not allow edits to an
original file.  So I started audacity without any parameters, opened
the wav file, and saved it as a project.  I was then able to edit it.

I just wish that audacity warned me that I was in readonly mode.
Otherwise everything else about it was pretty intuitive.  Thanks for
all of the suggestions!
