Hi Dimitar,

I just started on something called rxlaunch, which does exactly that. It's still in active development, but may already be useful to you.

You can get rxlaunch from its kforge page. Just checkout the mercurial repository and run rxlaunch.py. You may also need to install PySide.

Some things that don't work yet (2011-07-14):

  • It doesn't load parameters, so you should roslaunch the launch file first, then use rxlaunch
  • Everything is launched locally
  • It's hard-coded to use the master at http://localhost:11311

When things go wrong, just file a ticket.
