This method does not work with all desktop environments. Add a check for the current desktop environment

Enlightment is one of the DEs i have had issues with in the past it does not work $HOME/.config/autostart

And it would be awesome if you add a warning message for users that it will not work WM

Missing Standardization with common script, checks for different configurations like is it running a a supported DE, etc.

Can't merge this.
