    RANDYHARRIS  Nice utility that I can use.

    1) I'd suggest changing the "Configuration" screen's title to: "DelayedLauncher Configuration"

    2) Needs an icon instead of generic App icon.

    3) Please put a PAUSE button that can be pressed when setting up, when opened it wants to start launching everything.

    3) Most importantly, it would be great if each item could have it's own specific delay set for it. As it is now I've got a LOT of apps all firing up at exactly the same time which delays my system bog-down from boot up to a little later. Alternatively, maybe an user incremental delay setting instead of specific delays by item. In other works, an incremental delay of 5 seconds, so item 1 fires at the overall delay setting, 1 min 5 sec item #2 launches, 1 min 10 sec item 3 fires off, etc.

    Thanks!

    AMALGAMATED INC  excellent idea, i've been looking for something that does this for ages. i have about five apps i like to auto launch but having all five blast off the moment the desktop appears is nuts. a good future idea for dev, if possible, would be to be able to set a staggered sequence of launching each individually. this appears so far as i see it allows a single delay duration for all auto launched apps. good candidate for future donation-ware, thanks!

    RORO01  Thanks to the developer. Works as described but cannot set different delay times for different applications.

    TOOBEAUCOUP  You can create Automator workflows that will launch apps after a specified delay and add the workflows to your login items. I created one for Yojimbo after Leopard broke the Quick Input Panel feature that prevented it from working if Yojimbo was set as a login item. Works like a charm.
