The thrust of the discussion over the past few posts was really more about where or how to place the execution address in a program file so that it can be recovered by an uploader and used to auto-run the program after loading. (For anyone not too familiar with the MK14, the execution address of a program is not always the first address in the file).

I would imagine that after recovering the execution address from the file Coolsnaz2's code jumps or otherwise redirects the SC/MP to the start address of the program without any involvement from the OS.
