[openbox] How can I add an arbitrary String with an associated Script/Command in the Right Click Drop Down Menu List in OpenBox WM? Also, autostart applications every session?

My dear illustrious Team Leaders and Senior members of openbox ML,
A simple query.
I have a working debian-menu reflecting the stored menu file in
/var/lib/menu-xdg/menus/debian-menu.menu
I read the page http://openbox.org/wiki/Help:Menus.
Searching the internet, I tired to add a menu in extraScripts.xml in
~/.config/openbox/. But failed to have it displayed upon right click
with $sudo update-menus.
-------------------Begin Lines----------------------
<menu id="extras" label="ExtraScripts">
<menu id="my-scripts-menu" label="My Scripts">
<item label="My Script">
<action name="Execute">
# <command>~/my_script.sh</command>
<command>true</command>
</action>
</item>
</menu>
</menu>
-------------------Begin Lines----------------------
Right clicking on the desktop I find
/var/lib/menu-xdg/menus/debian-menu.menu being executed and the right
click drop down menu, sub-menu list appearing.
I want to add my personal scripts in this list.
I also want to autostart some applications upon every session.
How to achieve these objectives?
Best wishes,
Rajib B
