Hello <=K,
If the OP insists on doing it the way it was described, then use
Autostart to fire of a shell script that tests for the existance of
an already-running kmix and `exit 0` if so; elsewise start kmix.
Nearly any annoyance can be beaten into submission...

I haven't looked in detail into how it all
works, but why can't
autostart build a tree of every path/args it runs as it goes,
discarding duplicates and thus not running things twice?
Dumping stuff in Autostart should autostart it, surely? If the program
doesn't get started then that would be a bug in the autostart system.
At least, to my way of thinking. Creating exceptions in the way you
suggest could lead to a *lot* of head scratching.
Perhaps if the directory were called
Autostart_Unless_there_is_an_exception_to_the_rule_Please_see_source_code_to_figure_out_what_some_of_them_might_be
:-)
