that said, it would be awesome to merge your hack Paul.

i can vaguely remember something about that from you a year ago or so, but i also remember you also recalled and scrapped it the next day, so nothing was patched yet :(

i didn't pass it on because i started to get some crashes with qjc that i hadn' t had before.

is there any plans for (re)posting the "qjackctl pretty-name metadata patch" or whatever it's called?

it is a pretty deep change (i threw out all support for JACK port aliases). but i will post it at some point because i don't have time to figure out the nature of the (very occasional) crash (yet)
 
jack port aliases *should* be deprecated. it is a mechanism that should never have seen the light of day.
