You can create the file with any editor you want for instance the one in 
scilab (Applications -> SciNotes).
Just create a new document and save it in SCIHOME.

Note that under Linux, files whose name starts with a dot (.) are hidden 
by convention.
You can however see them under nautilus ("the" file explorer) with 
"View->Show hidden file".
For those reason it is easier to create scilab.ini.

scilab.star (in directory given by the SCI variable) is another startup 
file. The advantage is that it is the same file for every user.
