Hi @guardabrazo,

this is definitely something I’d like to see supported in the future 🙂

Currently we have an init file you can write which will auto-execute on launch. If you navigate into your `~/.sonic-pi/` folder and open up the `init.rb` file you’ll see something like this:

```ruby
# Sonic Pi init file
# Code in here will be evaluated on launch.

```

If you place Sonic Pi code in there, it will be automatically executed when you start Sonic Pi.

Does this help you get started?
