This summarizes responses I got to my request for info regarding
set-up files for Mathematica (M*ca for short) on the NeXT...

from Mark Adler at Cal Tech:
in a file named /LocalLibrary/Mathematica/Packages/init.m
you can place M*ca commands and these will be executed when 
you launch M*ca from the dock.

from Jerome Holton at Duke:
say you have a file named
/path/filename
which has M*ca commands. Once your M*ca session
is running, you can enter the following as a
command:
	<< /path/filename
and M*ca will execute the M*ca commands in the
file "on the fly".

i.e. Input[#] := << /path/filename

I'd like to say thanks to Mark and Jerome.
