Sure, but it's Mac-specific.  For someone like myself who moves between
different platforms I generally try to use tools which work across those
platforms to the extent that I can.  While @reboot is not universally
available (Solaris doesn't support it as far as I can tell) it is still more
common where I operate than launchd.  Not to mention which I have to horse
around with XML for config files which I completely detest for that purpose.
