Fons Adriaensen:
You can be as much of a professional user as you
want to.
It doesn't change the fact that other professionals might
not want the system to behave like you do.
Which again means it should be configurable.
Absolutely. I think a new function for jack would be
better than an environment variable though:
int jack_autoconnect_playback (jack_client_t *,
int portnum,
const char *source_port);
int jack_autoconnect_record (jack_client_t *,
int portnum,
const char *destination_port);
The reason is that this API will make it easier
for programs to make autoconnection configurabe.
Autoconnecting the old way (which includes finding
the physical ports and/or checking environment variables
for ports to connect to, etc.) is a lot more
hassle than just calling the functions above.
BTW, JSB may turn in his grave, but I _do_ like the
sound of sandysth... I still have to go through the
works to understand the algorithm...
Thank you very much. :-) I don't understand the algorithm
myself, so if someone else understood it, that would
be great. I think its quite similar to green noise,
which I read about later, created by moore at ucsd if
I remember correctly.
