Hello list,
the script below is from this forum entry.
https://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=19279
The request was to invoke non-session-manager (the GUI) and load a
specified session.
Maybe there is a better way?
hgn
#!/bin/sh
#Invoke with nsmopen.sh projectname
PROJECT=$1 #for better readability
eval $(nsmd --detach) #command returns a line to set the NSM_URL which
we use to actually set it.
{
#keep in brackets so that PID and nsm are in the same group. otherwise
wait below will complain
non-session-manager --nsm-url $NSM_URL &
PID=$! #Remember to check when the GUI closes
}
sleep 1 #leave NSM time to start up. Otherwise you will see some
glitched session display
#oscsend is part of liblo, which nsm depends on. So no extra program to
install
oscsend $NSM_URL "/nsm/server/open" s $PROJECT
wait $PID
echo "GUI closed. Closing detached nsdm server"
oscsend $NSM_URL "/nsm/server/quit"
