In [[Mini Micro]], any program found at /usr/startup.ms on the default user disk is run when the machine starts up.

You can use this when packaging your game for distribution, to make your game load automatically; or you can use it to streamline your workflow.

== Example ==
This example program, saved as /usr/startup.ms, loads another program called "MyCurrentProject.ms" so that it is loaded and ready as soon as the machine boots up.

<ms>// Load our current project so we can get right to work.
path = "2dVis"
load path
print path + " loaded and ready!"</ms>

For distribution, instead of the final <msinline>print</msinline> statement, the [[run]] command could be used to automatically run the freshly loaded program.
