I'm thinking of developing an application to watch changes for auto starting applications and service that would notify when:




  • A service state change (enabled/disabled/added/removed)

  • An application is added/removed to boot

  • Eventually revert the change


Auto start location to be watched:




  • Systemd services

  • Systemd timers

  • Cron...

  • ~/.kde/Autostart

  • /etc/init.d/

  • /etc/xdg/autostart/

  • ~/.xinitrc

  • etc.


Note that I am looking for a gui application eventually something that reside on the system tray or may be a script that pop-up a message/window.




  1. There are some tools and command like incron, diff <(cat old) <(cat new), notify-send, zenity and gxmessage to make it easy to write a bash script that could take care of all that but is there an application that already do that?


  2. Is there a similar tool that I can start from to avoid writing everything from scratch or a tool/application that have a different purpose but could be transformed into the needed function? (any programming language)
