What is the preferred way of running a script on bootup in LMDE?

I want to execute

xmodmap -e "keycode 166 = Prior" -e "keycode 167 = Next"

each time my computer starts in order to do some key remapping, but putting the code in rc.local doesn't do the job.

So where should it go?

Thanks,
Martin

Oh, that was easy:

I just added the code in Preferences - startup programs.

Yep, that's the standard way to do it.
