This is another note-to-self post, but I think other people might also be wondering this.

THIS IS ENTIRELY UNTESTED UNTIL THE SHELL WHERE I AM USING THIS REBOOTS THE NEXT TIME!

## Environment
# To avoid having to type absolute paths, append output of `printf "$PATH"`
PATH=
# Locale you wish to use
LANG=fi_FI.UTF-8
# Timezone
TZ=Europe/Helsinki

# The actual autostart magic
@reboot sleep 500 && tmux -2u new-session -s auto -d && tmux send -t auto weechat ENTER
  • @reboot = tell cron to do this on reboot
  • sleep 500 = the shell where I intent to use this primarily is using NFS and I think it’s reasonable to expect everything to be mounted in five minutes.
  • `tmux -2u” = force enable 256 colors & UTF-8
  • new-session -s auto -d = start a new session with name auto (as in automatically started) and detach it
  • tmux send -t auto weechat ENTER type weechat to tmux session named auto and press ENTER to execute it.
