One of the questions tackled there was how to set up a scene file that'd automatically load when Houdini started up. Turns out Houdini looks for a few script files to automatically execute on startup.

In this tut we create a 123.py file which contains the command to merge a scene file into your new scene when Houdini launches:
hou.hipFile.merge("C:/Users/Your_User/Documents/houdini19.5/ mydefault.hip")
