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