I don't see how Nama could to know to load a particular project, say "three_blind_mice". Perhaps qjackctl could execute a shell command like: screen -X -S audio screen -t Nama - three blind mice -p- -- nama three_blind_mice or rxvt -e nama three_blind_mice I'm especially interested non-GUI tools, since Nama caters to users who don't run X. Unfortunately the git repository for pyjacksm appears to be offline. :-( Regards, -- Joel Roth _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
