<p>Hi Andrew,</p>
<p><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.lxde.org/en/LXSession#Autostarted_applications_using_lxsession">http://wiki.lxde.org/en/LXSession#Autostarted_applications_using_lxsession</a></p>
<p>This describes how to start things automatically in LXDE
(Lubuntu)</p>
<p>It is much the same for all desktop environments.</p>
<p>You make a folder (if it doesn't exist already) <br>
</p>
<p>~/.config/autostart</p>
<p>where ~ is shorthand for your home directory (/home/<i>username</i>
)</p>
<p>Then you save a desktop file in that directory.</p>
<p>Here are the really in depth details about those files.<br>
</p>
<p><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://specifications.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/">https://specifications.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/</a></p>
<p>The program<br>
</p>
<p>lxshortcut</p>
<p>can make a simple desktop file pretty easily.<br>
</p>
<p>If you installed the program in wine, it should automatically
create a desktop file for that program, which should be hidden in:</p>
<p>~/.local/share/applications/</p>
<p>if you find the wine desktop file for that program, just copy it
to your ~/.config/autostart</p>
<p>This will now 'just work'</p>
<p>If you have more questions please just ask!<br>
</p>
