Tell me more ×  I have a PyGtk application that I made using
Quickly, and I would like to have it run on startup when
installed. How would I go about doing this? I'm not sure if
sticking the .desktop file in ~/.config/autostart/ would make it
work or not. If that will fix it, I don't know how to add it to
that folder since Quickly packages the project for you and has
it's own installation script. Is it possible to modify what it
does on installation?  If possible, I would also like to add the
program in the System Settings Personal tab, but I do not know
how to do that.  share|improve this question add comment  1
