Hey all, In kdelibs4 times one used to be able to put any script into ~/.kde/Autostart/ make it executable and when startkde ran it would launch those scripts. In kf5/plasma next time ~/.config/autostart should be able to do likewise, but doesn't seem to. On one hand the autostart kcm shows scripts there under a Scripts header and lets you choose whether they should be ran at startup, or shutdown, or Pre-KDE startup, yet they are never launched.
I took a look at the kinit klauncher autostart code and it only ever looked for .desktop files under these autostart paths, even in my clone of kdelibs it never looked for anything without a .desktop extension. How did launching of non .desktop file stuff ever work? Once I know that maybe I can make it work again in plasma-next/kf5 environment. thanks, Jeremy
