As your editor is not xsession-aware you have to wrap it some shell script, that just
saves the state of x2 in the form of commandline invocation in a file when it's close
due to TDE shutdown. So there is no invocation of X2 when no X2 was open when TDE closed
the session. At TDE login you execute that file with invocations and be happy. Sure, you
have to manage some stuff like which desktop to put it, window placement etc. but
that's not that complicated.

You can use the autostart dir [1], but you'll need to do the work yourself.
You could add a wrapper to starting X2 and a script in the autostart dir.
Or better would be a check script in the shutdown dir (if it exists) and a
corresponding script in the autostart dir.
Here's some out of context code from something else, hack-and-slash as
needed.
#!/bin/bash
/path-to-X2/X2
Pid=`pgrep -f /path-to-X2/X2`
if [ "$Pid" != "" ] ; then
# echo Already running...
# ps "$Pid"
touch /home/foo/.trinity/apps-to-restart/X2
exit
fi
In any event, what you want can be done, it just might be painful.
Best,

[1] Mine seems to be called: /home/michael/.trinity/Autostart
You're apparently misunderstanding what I'm looking for. I don't want this
program to Always start when I login, only when it was running at the time
that I previously logged out. That's why I wondered if some sort of DCOP
wrapper might be appropriate.

Once upon a time there was a little kingdom where all applications held
the X11 standards high and the grand master of session management
called
So I guess you're saying that there's no way to get TDE to notice
my X2, then.
