 4 is initialized, i.e.  after a login, new_proc, or process termination.

 6 initial working directory with the name start_up.ec.  If the segment
 7 start_up.ec exists in the user's initial working directory, the
 8 printing of the message of the day is suppressed and exec_com is
 9 called to execute the commands specified in the segment.  The call to
10 exec_com is issued as the first command to the new process before any
11 lines are read from the terminal.  The call to exec_com is issued as
12 the command:
13     exec_com start_up CREATION_TYPE PROCESS_TYPE

19    of a login; or is the string "new_proc" if the process has been
20    created as the result of a new_proc command or process termination.
21 PROCESS_TYPE

23    interactive one; or is the string "absentee" if the process is an
24    non-interactive absentee process.
