Hi,

Why is the daemon mode always associated
with the interactive mode ? Indeed even if you
start ecasound in daemon mode i.e. as a server,
there is still console with an ecasound running.
It means that you may not this console for other tasks.

I looked at the source code an saw that it matches
indeed the command line parsing method.
More over you might not set -C option to
inhibit the interactive mode together with the daemon
option. Why ?

Finally ecasound's behavior depends on the order the
options on the command line and not only on the options
themselves. It might confuse the user !

Must something be improved in the command line parsing
method ?

Bests

Pierre
