JWM configuration lacks of StartupCommand control?

I didn't find control to add program list to be run at startup.
I just manually add this line below to ~/.jwmrc under StartupCommand tag:
<StartupCommand>
exec ~/.startup
</StartupCommand>

Then add program name to ~/.startup file that need to be executed at startup.

Any plan to add this control via jwm configuration app?

That is what the /root/Startup folder is for (there is a short delay before it runs all of the programs/symlinks/scripts in the folder)

Ok, thanks. i missed this folder.
and the front-end to add this startup symlink instead of from console?

that "front end" would be ROX (just drag and drop an executable to the startup folder and then select link)

Ok. But, it may need a small gtk application (and then linked from jwm or icewm configurator) to make this task 'touchable' from user.

thank you,
