The startup scripts are just files of TNC commands that get sent by Xastir
to the TNC on start-up or shut-down.

You tell xastir to use that start-up script in the interface properties when
you set up your interface.  Choose "Interface->Interface Control", select
the interface you want to modify and click "Properties" (if the interface 
exists, or "Add" if you haven't defined one yet).  At the bottom of the
properties dialog for any of the TNC types, there's a pair of boxes for
"TNC Configuration Files".  Choose "tnc-startup.thd7" for the "TNC Setup 
Filename" and "tnc-stop.thd7" for the "TNC Shutdown Filename" and you're good 
to go.
