How can I start xscreensaver and > engage for example with my E16 release? 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.... .
