I think Patrick's right. There are programs that start automatically if have

They do this by communicating with the running session manager, not by
placing files around the place. So, I guess Skype is doing this.


What happens if you remove this application from autostart, logs out without
closing the program, and logis in? Does it start or not?

As many instances as were running when I logged out are started. When it
is in the Autostart, I also get a new one each time. When it is not in
the Autostart, I only get the existing ones. The problem is that if the
program was not running on logout, I then get nothing. Which is not what
I want. I will try the suggestion of saving/restarting a specific
session.

One advantage of the Autostart method is that I can easily set that up
in an installation script. Defining a session will, I fear, now require
manual setup where it was once automatic. Progress?

Looks to me that *the* solution would be to save a session with the
required apps still running. Then subsequent sessions would begin with
*only* the required apps and nothing extra that was running on the last
session close/exit. The would also mean that you would *not* use
"AutoStart".
