non-session-manager (nsm) support #2

could you add non-session-manager support? It makes working with modular applications on linuxaudio a lot easier.

Cool idea, I'll certainly consider it.

However, in general implementing support for session managers (whether it is Non, LADISH, or anything else) requires quite a lot of work; and especially with the current harmonySEQ architecture it would be difficult to accomplish. I will not be able to accurately estimate the amount of effort required to implement this until harmonySEQ's architecture undergoes some major reorganization, which is already happening, but is likely to take quite some time.

It would be great to measure the interest in this feature. Unless there is sufficient demand for session manager support, it may be better to focus on more universally useful features first.

So thanks for this suggestion, I'll keep it in mind, but it's not likely I'll find the time to implement this in near future.
