Ya, I could have been a little more explanitory there... like I said the 
documentation is just not there. Jack_control is written in python so it 
is possible to directly read the source, but I found that running 
jack_control with no arguements gives usage. from there I noted that dl 
will return a list of drivers, dp will get me a list of what the current 
driver parameters are and default to. il gies a sililar list for internals 
etc. yu will notice a lot of the commands are to "get" information. It 
would be handy to take all of this stuff and make a man page I am 
guessing.
