= Introduction

This is a wrapper for JACK[http://www.jackaudio.org].

Here's a quick code sample. Currently no docs.

require 'jack'

JACK::Client.new("myname") do |jack| port = jack.port_by_name("system:capture_1") port.connect("system:playback_1") sleep 5 port.disconnect("system:playback_1") end

Please notice that code is rather alpha-version and can contain bugs.
