Nope. For a structure named "mystruct", put it in a file called
mystruct__define, inside a PRO called mystruct__define, with no
arguments. This will automatically be run if mystruct is not defined,
upon the first encounter of statements like

my_var = {mystruct}

E.g. mystruct__define.pro:

PRO mystruct__define
dummy = {mystruct, fielda:0.0, fieldb:"" }
END
