I use projectX to do all my commercial cutting. Most of the time I use
the myth interface to do set the cutpoints and I use a shell script to
fire off projectx to do the cutting. On top of that there were
occasions in which I have used the gui from projectx for that as well.
For the command line stuff I have a script (pxcut.sh)  that gets the
cut points out of myth and calls projectx. You can find the latest
here:
