opera widgets on kde

Unlike windows, opera widgets on kde don't get added to the start menu - thank God for that! bigsmile

However, they do start in a separate process (Opera 10.53 Internal).

My problem: how can I start them from kde's autostart list?
...? No.

Got it! For each widget, Opera creates a subdirectory in your home. It also creates a subdirectory called .opera-widgets, and places an executable launching the widget in this directory's bin subdirectory.

If you simply launch the binary files, they complain about Opera already running.

If you launch them as <widget binary> -pd <widget's subdirectory created inside ~/.opera> they start just fine.
...? No.
