I'm frequently resorting to scripts to start my regular jack sessions, in 
which 
killall foo
foo -bar
works for most things. There's a fairly simple way of scripting a PID 'search 
& destroy' mechanism, I haven't quite got frustrated enough times to do it 
yet ;-] but any suggestions of a more graceful way to do it appreciated.
