Starting a program at boot

[ryanyeah]

So I use screen dimming software called "redshift". Whenever I boot, I usually just open a terminal and type that in to run it. Is there an automated way to run this upon boot?

Another question; is there a way to execute a command in the background of a terminal? I've heard that a & after a command does this, but I haven't had much luck when I tried putting that after a command.

enter the command to be executed into :

Applications -> System Tools -> Preferences -> Start Apps (from top menu)

Wow, that worked awesomely. Thanks.

Now I feel guilty for using a gui tool haha.

Hi, any idea how to do this in lubuntu 1.4 as I have the same problem as ryanyeah.

Redshift only starts if I type gtk-redshift -l 53.48:1.33 into a terminal even though the prog is installed.
I can't find any "Startup Apps" settings
