I think it must be frustrating for Karen to have to ask if she doesn't have a command line to start playing with stuff referred to in answers. When she mentions keyboard shortcuts, she refers to ProTools. With Linux, especially in the world of command line software, you end up gluing together an assortment of utilities, Gnu screen configuration, shells aliases, and probably several of your own scripts. Then there is getting to know a pager such as 'less' and a text editor, such as nano or vim. All as friendly as can be, but with the well-known Unix learning curve for the terminal environment, shell, command names, and key bindings. -- Joel Roth _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
