You could add any program by editing ~/.e16/e_config--0.0.snapshots and add a new entry for a program. Because thats not very comfortable and only could be done with e _not_ running (otherwise the changes will be overwritten by e) there's a second solution. Once I added ----- NEW: run NAME: run CLASS: run CMD: /home/phriedrich/.e16/run.sh ------ as the four first lines of the aboved named config file and created the run.sh-script on the described place. Now I can easily add new programs to autostart just by inserting a line. From my run.sh: ------- #! /bin/bash xmodmap .xmodmap & xscreensaver & macosd -n & Eterm --theme irssi --name=Irssi --title=Irssi -e irssi & ------- Hope that helps you, best regards, Friedrich Post Scriptum: Maybe we could have a file like '~/.e16/e_config--0.0.autostart' in which we can easily add programs to start without the loop way with calling a run.sh. Or maybe even better a '~/.e16/menus/autostart' which also had the advance to be more intuitive and could also be edited with the menu-editor. Just an idea.... .

Previous Message by Date:[e-users] Entrance and .xinitrcHi all, I'd like to start some programs with E16, using Entrance (latest CVS) as login manager. Well, I've tried .xinitrc lines but it seems Entrance ignores it. How can I start xscreensaver and engage for example with my E16 release?

With e16.8 I think this should do what you want: $ eesh set misc.session.cmd_init /home/phriedrich/.e16/run.sh Beware! The script must exit, as your run.sh does. /Kim ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
