Fixes #2233, closes #1069. I don't love this (and the examples are a massive hack!), but it's better than nothing.

# Computer startup
|
|
When a computer turns on, it searches for files to run as part of the startup process. This page details this process.
|
|
|
|
For information about creating a basic startup file, see [`guide!startup`].
|
|
|
|
1. `/rom/autorun`: Computers first look in the `/rom/autorun` folder, and run every file in that folder. This folder is
|
|
empty by default, but may be extended by datapacks or other mods. See the [example
|
|
datapack](https://github.com/cc-tweaked/datapack-example) for an example.
|
|
|
|
2. If the `shell.allow_disk_startup` [setting][`settings`] is `true`, then connected disk drives are searched for a
|
|
`startup` file, `startup.lua` file, or `startup/` directory. The first disk containing these files will be used for
|
|
startup.
|
|
|
|
1. The `startup` (*or* `startup.lua`) file will be run.
|
|
2. All programs under `startup/` will be run.
|
|
|
|
The order disks are iterated over is not defined, and so it is recommended to only have one disk containing startup
|
|
files connected to a computer.
|
|
|
|
3. If no startup files are found on a disk, and the `shell.allow_startup` [setting][`settings`] is `true`, then the
|
|
root directory is searched for startup files in the same way (`startup` *or* `startup.lua`, then all files in
|
|
`startup/`).
|
|
|
|
When listing a files from a directory (either `startup/` or `rom/autorun`), the result of [`fs.list`] is used
|
|
directly. This will always return files in lexicographical order. This means that `startup/a.lua` will always run before
|
|
`startup/b.lua`.
