Launch login items via AppleScript to avoid login delays
Here's what I use. I hope it fits your needs. It reads out aliases in a folder "Startitems" in your home folder and starts one after another and really wait till the app before has finished launching. You can define the order of launch by ordering it alphabetically. It displays a progress bar and closes (if desired) application windows, so you get a clean desktop when finished. I originally wrote it in german and did a quick translation now, hopefully without any typos.
BP Progress Bar can be found there:

Launch login items via AppleScript to avoid login delays
I got a hint that my script doesn't work if suffixes are enabled. If you got any error message saying that an application name doesn't match, disable the suffix in the application name by checking "Hide suffix" in the get-info window or disable them all in the finder preferences. |
