Adding Startup Items in KDE


Hey guys, I just configured kxdocker (and love it!) but want it to load automatically at startup. It's just one command, kxdocker, but I'm afraid I don't know where to put it. Thanx a bunch for this quick fix type thing. -Bill

So, just drop a copy of the file into that directory?

Thanx for the speedy response, I just hit f5 and there it was... Shazam. -Bill

Yes, just drop the .desktop file into that directory and it will launch with kwin.
