pabouk:
Is there a sensible reason why the possibility to run a plugin after boot is not compiled by default?
I am missing possibility to run a (LUA) script after boot.
Llorean:
It would mean checking for the presence of another file at boot, further slowing down the boot process (which in my opinion has gotten way too slow recently already).
There may be other reasons as well.
pabouk:
I do not know how is the autorun currently implemented in SVN but it is not necessary to always check for an existence of a file. Autorun could be a configurable parameter with possibility to enable / disable it (or even select a name of the autorun file). In addition I think that testing for a presence of a file is not very time consuming with directory cache enabled.
I hope I am not diverging the theme of this thread too much. If yes please excuse me and delete this message.
Llorean:
An enabling directory cache also slows down startup, so for startup to not be slowed down in one way, it must be slowed in another?

This is probably sensible, but would need someone to implement it. It could work similar to selecting a background bitmap...
