many years ago I did jmmmp/ardourjack-gui-help. not sure if it does what

But [shell] doesn't need symbols, you can pass a plain message to it
such as [ardour:send 7/audio_in 1( without escaping spaces, with
perhaps a [list trim]
Does that not work ?

Ironically, when I want to execute the command from a real terminal, I
need to escape the port names with \:
jack_connect pure_data:output_1 ardour:A-0/audio_input\ 1
