NAME
jacklaunch - launch sound program as JACK client
SYNOPSIS
jacklaunch application-name options
DESCRIPTION
The jacklaunch command can be used to turn sound programs that are
accessing the OSS sound system into JACK aware applications. It is
using a library called libjackasyn, which is preloaded with the
LD_PRELOAD environment variable.
The same effect can be achieved by setting the LD_PRELOAD variable
globally.
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libjackasyn.so.0
In this case all of the programs using the OSS API will be run as JACK
clients if the jackd is started. If jackd is not started they will
behave in their normal way and use the OSS sound I/O directly.
