How do we execute a command such as it executes everytime one logs out or shutdowns or restarts the machine ?
To be more specific, I want the autotrash to be executed at logout, or shutdown or restart.

@EricPower Thank you for the link. Though it will work. is there a way in using cron ? Like without having to use `sudo`, and without affecting other users ? – maan81 Aug 17 '15 at 08:51

@maan81: unfortunately cron knows only about time, not about startup/shutdown. See [crontab(5)](http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/vivid/en/man5/crontab.5.html) for the details. – Andrea Corbellini Aug 17 '15 at 16:29
