[LAD] Jack Session Manager: feature request

Hi, It is very promising that devs like Torben, Paul Davis, Rui and David Robillard (to name a few), are 'backing up' Jack Session and that the Jack Session API is in the Jack API. This will give the community a very good chance that many apps will get JackSession support soon (or later). However, it's still reasonable to expect that not all LAD applications are going to be patched with JackSession support. In other words, there are and will be apps which might be useful (for one or more of us) to use in a session but which won't have JackSession (JS) support. From a users perspective, it would be very useful to be able to use that application (without JS support) in a session in some way nevertheless. At the moment one Session Manager (SM), Pyjacksm (Qjackctl will follow soon, and also Patchage I expect) makes this possible by manually adding 'infra clients' to a configuration file, .pyjacksmrc. See example below. Infra clients are designed for applications without a state, like a2j. But it is also possible to use apps without JS support as infra client. Amsynth is an application without JS support and in this way I am able to load amsynth, with project A. The SM makes sure that Amsynth is started and that the Jack connections are restored (that's the only thing the SM can do for you for apps without JS support). But I don't want to use Amsynth with Project A always (Session 1). I might be working on a totally different project and want to make a session for that also (Session 2). This time I want to load amsynth as: amsynth -b /home/user/projectB.amSynth.presets (I don't use Session 1 and 2 together in this example). To be able to load Session 2, I have to edit my .pyjacksmrc file or make symlinks. *Feature request*: It would be nice if the SM could provide me a way to load a different configuration file. For example: JackSessionManagerX --load configurationfileSession2 Thanks in advance, \r .pyjacksmrc: [DEFAULT] sessiondir = ~/linuxaudio/JackSession [infra] a2j = a2jmidid -e amsynth = amsynth -b /home/user/projectA.amSynth.presets configurationfileSession2: [DEFAULT] sessiondir = ~/linuxaudio/JackSession [infra] a2j = a2jmidid -e amsynth = amsynth -b /home/user/projectA.amSynth.presets
