Here's the shell script I use to launch my sequencer, QJackCtl, Jack-Rack, JOST, and QSynth: xdosemu -input \r big.bat & qjackctl & sleep 7 jack-rack /home/dlphilp/racks/favoriteplate.rack & qsynth & jost & The big.bat is a DOS batch file that runs in DOSemu to launch my sequencer. QJackCtl and QSynth can be configured for autostart and autoconnection, plus the PatchBay in QJackCtl can recall all connections. See the help options for each program to see what can done at the command prompt. Btw, the sleep command (for seven seconds) is necessary to keep the other apps from loading until JACK has been started. I named the file sequencer.scr and added it to my Fluxbox music apps menu. I click on the menu entry, everything happens. It's not LASH, but it'll do until all my favorite Linux audio apps have been LASHed. Also btw: I think all the apps that the original poster wants to run *can* be controlled by LASH.
