There are several pages for it, but I have this one working:
https://github.com/dlitz/xtoolwait
Xtoolwait notably decreases the startup time of an X session by reducing the load on the X server and Linux.
It starts an X client in the background, waits for a window to be mapped on the root window, and then exits. It can improve performance for users who start a bunch of X clients automatically (for example, xterm, xlock, xconsole, whatever) when the X session starts.

https://ignavus.net/xosd
Transparent X on-screen display.
It’s fairly insane. It’s way too unix-like to be usable by mere mortals. You’d think that you could run ‘xosd’ to run the program, but you’re wrong. It’s actually osd_cat ..
Comes with an XMMS plugin.
