This doesn't really work yet -- it doesn't initialize graphics properly
Here are two scripts that let you "force" autorun to work even after quitting a program. Useful for gmenu2x. This should be used in place of the "Autorun" preference in the GPH default menu, so turn that off before installing these.
Run autoreallyrun-on first to set it up. Then you can go back and forth between autoreallyrun being on or off by running the two programs.
Please note: this is beta and may screw up your Wiz, forcing a reinstall from firmware. Use at your own risk!!. That said, it works for me. This works by copying your gp2xmenu executable off safely and replacing it with a shell script that boots your autorun.gpu file if it is accessible. So please be warned that a weird thing could happen that destroys your gp2xmenu executable. You can read the source, it's just two shell scripts, I'll even list them here. Any comments please let me know.
Here's the source of autoreallyrun-on and off, but it's easier if you just download the GPE files and put them on your Wiz.
