Automatically execute Python-Script when Maya loaded

Hey there,

short but very important question: Is it possible to load and execute a Python-Script after Maya loaded successfully?

With the following code I added another script path: (userSetup.py)
Quote:
import sys
sys.path.append( 'D:/test/' )
syspaths = sys.path
import pythontest
pythontest.sayit()


The content of my script "pythontest.py" is:

Quote:
def sayit():
print 'Hello World!'


After the Maya start I expected the command response "Hello World!" but there is nothing, why? The only thing I want is an automatic execution of a Python-Script after every Maya start.

Thank you for your help I am looking forward!

Andy

Does userSetup.py actually execute on startup or is it just userSetup.mel? If so, you can try wrapping your python code in
Code:
python("command one; command two()");
And put that in userSetup.mel
