You are correct.  I was adding this in at the same time I started to
reply to your message and forgot to go back and change it.  I put the "X"
in at the time just to differentiate from any other type of system
that might be running programs.

Personally, I think this is a great idea!  It would be wonderful if
packages could automatically add themselves to a list of runnable
programs.  It would make things much easier for the novice.

Its concept only.
