However, both the startupHook and Don’s suggestion above
will relaunch every time you restart xmonad (eg. press
Mod+Q). While this is not a problem for xsetroot, the best
place to launch processes is in your .xsession or .xinitrc.
It might be possible to check whether xmonad is resuming
after a Mod+Q and only run programs if it isn’t, but I don’t
know how.
