How do I make an application start up automatically when xfce starts up? I am trying to learn on a laptop and I would like to have xbattbar start up automatically. Right now, I open a terminal window and type xhost +, su, xbattbar and then I have to leave the terminal window open. I know this is probably in the handbook (which I admittedly have not read in its entirety), but I can not find anything in the ToC, the index, or from searching Google. Maybe I'm searching for the wrong thing? Any help, even if it is just a reference to the proper place to look in the handbook, would be greatly appreciated.
