Thanks for the advice. I have finally achieved what I wanted. In case
somebody would want to do something similar, here's the rule:
{ rule = { instance = "chromium-autorun" },
callback = function(c)
local f = io.open(awful.util.getdir("config") .. "/chromium-autorun",
"r")
if f~=nill then
awful.client.movetotag(tags[1][3], c)
io.close(f)
os.remove(awful.util.getdir("config") .. "/chromium-autorun")
end
end },
And before I autostart chromium, I just _touch_ the file.
