For a program like Xastir that has a GUI you need to edit the desktop autostart 
file.

On the raspberry pi it's found at:  ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart

nano ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart
and add a line like this to the end.

@xastir

That should cause xastir to start up after the desktop is up.

NOTE:   The vast majority of my RPi are all headless so I haven't tried this 
with 
Xastir but it is the standard way of autostarting applications on the desktop.
