Step one:
On the class side of your class, implement #startup: and have
your #startup: method do whatever needs to be done on image startup.
The parameter to the #startup: method will indicate whether the
image is being restarted (versus resuming after an image save), so
test for this (resuming ifTrue: [do my startup stuff]).

Step two:
In a #initialize class method for your class, add the line:
	Smalltalk addToStartUpList: self.
Evaluate this one time to add your class to the system startup
list. This causes your #startup: method to be called whenever
the image is restarted.

Step three:
Save your image, restart, and see if it works.
