"ocaml_beginners"::[] Home-made initially opened module ?

Hello all,

In my home-made Ocaml toplevel (created with ocamlmktop) I always start by typing the
command

open My_Pervasives;;

This module contains shortcuts values&;functions that I use
very frequently (such as let hd=List.hd, etc).

Is there a hack to create a toplevel that automatically opens
this module when launched, so that I don't have to re-type
the command above every time ? (AFAIK that's impossible, but
there's no harm in asking ...)

For Unix/Linux:
put that open-statement into a file called ".ocamlinit";
in your home-directory.

.ocamlinit will be used as if you have typed in the commands in this
file by hand.

Ciao,

Initialization commands are read from a .ocamlinit file, see
http://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/manual023.html
for the details.
