How do I start an application after fluxbox starts?

I am using Fluxbox with Xubuntu 8.04.

I am trying to use the bbpager utility in the slit - it just works better
than fbpager and ipager on my little eeePC. But BBPager has the peculiarity
that it will not start until AFTER fluxbox is started.

When I was using BlackBox as a Window Manager, I was able to insert a "sleep
2 &" statement into the blackbox startup script.

So, how can I do that with FluxBox?I consulted the wiki article:
"How do I start an application after fluxbox starts"- but unfortunately that
article doesn't say what file to edit or replace. I think an edit is in
order.

With Xubuntu, there is no .xinitrc or .xsession file. Instead, the
startfluxbox script is run by the /usr/share/xsessions/fluxbox.desktop file.

To have bbpager run withdrawn a few seconds after FluxBox starts, into which
file should I be inserting statements like:

exec fluxbox &
 fbpid=$!

 sleep 2
 {
   bbpager -w &
 } &

 wait $fbpid

- Anybody got an idea?


Thanks for your patience.
