Well, that's what aplaymidi -l says:
laptop:/home/laptop# aplaymidi -l
Port Client name Port name
62:0 Midi Through Midi Through Port-0
128:0 Om /sine

It certainly happens, and I am running the Om JACK combo on a 1.8ghz
laptop, so there shouldn't be any shortage of cycles, especially in a
console environment. However, the occurences are fairly random, and I
couldn't tie them to any action from my part. Ecasound and jack.play are
working with no problem. And, for the record, I am using Om 0.2.0.

Sounds fine by me.

That would certainly be useful. Is the format used by soundtank's
<http://www.nymu.net/soundtank/> patch files compatible with Om? It
seems to be using XML as well and has a shell-like interface which lets
one edit a patch-file (or so it says; I haven't been able to compile
it).
Cheers,
