Login item support for Panther, Tiger and Leopard

Hi,

  I have an application which will run on Panther, Tiger and Leopard
versions.

  Now, i want to launch my application automatically after user(should work
for all users in the installed machine) logs in. I have tried with the
Startup item, LaunchAgents and login item concepts.

  First, i have tried with  Startup items, because above three versions
supports this feature. But the problem is, my application starts before the
Login window. I have tried with the Requires and Uses keys available in
Startupitems.plist, but no result.

  Second, i have tried with the LaunchAgents. Its working as expected in
Tiger and Leopard, but not in Panther. Is any one knows, how to do in
Panther?.

  Third, i have to update the loginwindow.plist file using Cocoa/Carbon
application. But, this is not the solution, which i am looking for. I have
to acheive this functionality at the time of Installation i.e using
Installer scripts.

 - Apparao.
