Where is startup.jl (v1.2)?

General Usage

I was reading a thread that shows how to add things like Revise and OhMyREPL to your startup.jl file so that they are available upon starting Julia but I can’t find my startup.jl file. I am running Julia 1.2 on Windows 10.

When I navigate to C:\Users\mthel\.julia there is no config folder:

PS C:\Users\mthel\.julia> ls


    Directory: C:\Users\mthel\.julia

d-----        7/24/2019   8:53 PM                prefs
d-----        7/12/2019   8:04 AM                registries

I’ve checked all of these folders and none of them contain a startup.jl file.

I don’t think it is created when it does not exist, ie you need to just make a file with that path.

Thanks, @Tamas_Papp, that worked.
