There is no good way. The slit is given windows as they are opened and it basically adds them to the bottom of the stack. The only sure fire way is to force the programs to load in the order you want. Which means icky sleep/delay tricks. Window Maker solves this in two ways. First, you can drag the docked apps around and second it remembers their order and their command lines and starts them for you next time. I have been loathe to implement that second option, I am not against the first.
