RS>  2) I _know_ that having applications load in specific desktops with xfce4
RS>when startx is run has been discussed. This is to permit the same service as
RS>has been provided with xfce3. Is there something in the archives about the
RS>format of what I need to put in ~/Desktop/Autostart to achieve this goal?

No clue.
