I'll try this workaround. I wish it was documented. Did I miss it?
It is mentioned in README-0.16.8 :)

Would somebody please hit me hard over the head! :) It's a terrific
feature and solves all my issues. Even though this works fine, have you
ever considered having an .e16/Autostart directory which could contain
any scripts to run in such cases? This would make e even more friendly
while still allowing the user to use eesh or edit the config file
manually.
In pseudo code, something like this on startup.
if exist .e16/Autostart then
for all files in Autostart do
if -x then execute it
end
fi
and
if restarting e
if in restart and exist .e16/Restart
for all files in Restart do
if -x then execute it
end
fi
Then, on shutdown
if exist .e16/Shutdown
for all files in Shutdown do
if -x then execute it
end
fi
This is common practice for KDE and ROX which I know. Not a gnome
person, but I am sure it has it too.
Just my $0.02. Thanks for your effort and support.
I have considered doing this, but multiple display/screen setups would
have to be handled in some way. e.g. by using .e16/Autostart-0.0/ etc.,
and I'm not sure that would make things much simpler in the end.
It would also add some extra complexity to e16, and I think that
complexity could just as well be implemented in some external script(s)
doing what you suggest. Maybe providing a sample script would be useful?
