#!/bin/bash
firefox
sleep 5s
thunderbird
sleep 5s
pidgin
and put it into preferences/sessions/startup programs tab/add.
But, of course, now the next program won't start until I close the previous one.
Is there a possibility to start a program in the background, so the script won't stop?
Code:
#!/bin/bash
firefox&
sleep 5s
thunderbird&
sleep 5s
pidgin&
