Oh, wow! that just put a spotlight on things. Thanks, Kelly!

I did find  a man page on dice.net for Jackd. Are the man pages taken out of
the Planet CCRMA to save space? I had gone to jackaudio.org. Maybe I went
when they are just changing things. There is a chance I have too much on my
plate with all these applications and I am not focusing on the parts I
should.

 Now that I know there are all these commands I can use in /usr/bin/ That
should prove interesting. INteresting, I don:t have a few you list like
jack_transport, jack_transport_client, jack_impulse_grabber and
jack_netsource.

Thanks again!
