Well on OS 9 it depends how you run the system. Running Multilple
users, you must put any item that you want to run on login in the
"Hard Drive:Users:UserName:Startup Items", but if you are running the
Mac without Multiple users, you should put the item (or an alias to
the item) in the "Hard Drive:System folder:Startup Items".
In OS X, you can specify what you want to run in the "Login Items"
pane of the System Prefs.
...and save them as applications, not compiled scripts, or they'll just
open in Script Editor instead of running.
