Title Launching an application at start-up in Photon
Ref. No. QNX.000006165
Category(ies) Utilities, Configuration
Issue How would you go about automatically launching an application when Photon starts up?
Solution To tell Photon to automatically launch an applicatin at startup, add the name of the application's executable to the $HOME/.photon/phapps configuration file.

NOTE:  The file may need to be created, and it must be marked as executable(chmod +x ~/.photon/phapps).
