Research direction

Start by reproducing the restart with “Reopen windows when logging back in” enabled, then inspect the TotalTerminal startup and Terminal.app interaction paths. Done means TotalTerminal can be called after restart and Terminal.app does not become unresponsive when right-clicked.

Description

Hello guys.

I'm a new Mac user, and I believe this might be obvious for people working with the mechanics of TotalTerminal, but anyways I wanted to list this as an issue:

Trying to Restart a machine with "Reopen windows when logging back in" results in not being able to call "TotalTerminal" and Terminal.app shows "Application Not Responding" upon right-clicking.

I believe this is reproducible for almost anyone.

I've lost my ability to call TotalTerminal several times, and if you know of other "Sleep"-issues with TotalTerminal please link it here, I would like to follow this.
