For a bunch of WAV files that have already been mixed, I was trying to avoid the
clickydragging and wait time to import them all into Ardour and then make markers for
them, then export the markers again.
I'm looking for something I can do this with:
ls *wav | while read i; do jamin-batch "$i"; done
It's not my Mac and I can't go installing Ardour, JAMIN, and JACK on it. It's
also an old PPC Mac and my Linux box has much more CPU than it, so I'd rather do it
here.

Any particular reason you wouldn't just run
Ardour, load in your files,
patch it into Jamin, and take a listen?
I can't think of a command line program sorry, just wanted to make sure you
realized this could be done on a Mac(Which I am fairly sure you did and this
is probably useless noise).
