Yes, indeed, you can have things called automatically when you login. Under normal unix type environments, you could just add it to .profile and it would run when you logged in. I've not tried this with osx, so don't know if it will work or not. However, Apple does provide a way to do this. It's called login items. Using system preferences, click on accounts, then select login items. There's a table there listing your current login items. There's buttons to add or delete items as well. Just add whatever program you like to the list, and it will run when you login to your machine. I have a program here that will allow you to edit these from a regular program, but it's not 100% working with vo yet, and until I can figure out how the heck to change graphical items on the screen, I don't want to hand it out just yet, since it's still too much related to apple sample code for me to call it mine.
