NAME

6       systemd-xdg-autostart-generator - User unit generator for XDG autostart
7       files

SYNOPSIS

10       /usr/lib/systemd/user-generators/systemd-xdg-autostart-generator
11

DESCRIPTION

13       systemd-xdg-autostart-generator is a generator that creates .service
14       units for XDG autostart[1] files. This permits desktop environments to
15       delegate startup of these applications to systemd(1) .
16
17       Units created by systemd-xdg-autostart-generator can be started by the
18       desktop environment using "xdg-desktop-autostart.target". See
19       systemd.special(7) for more details.
20
21       XDG autostart may be conditionalized using both standardized and
22       non-standardized keys. In order to handle these, the generator may
23       create one or more ExecCondition= entries. For non-standardized keys,
24       well-known helper binaries provided by Desktop Environments are used.
25       All external helpers must detect their corresponding desktop
26       environment and must return success when run in a different
27       environment. This is important as all ExecCondition= directives must
28       succeed for an application to be started.
