I'm using a backlit keyboard and need to enter this every I start the computer. 

#!/bin/bash
if [ -f /tmp/keyboard_light ]; then
xset -led 3 && rm /tmp/keyboard_light
else
xset led 3 && touch /tmp/keyboard_light
fi

How do I make it to start every time I start my computer?

Copy the code into a text editor and save it somewhere as a .sh file (shell script). Give the file execute permissions (Right click->Properties->Permissions Tab->Allow executing file as program). Then, open up "Startup applications", add a new entry, click Browse and select the .sh file you created. Hit save, reboot, and test.

If this doesn't work you can try adding sleep 15 to the file, right after the !/bin/bash line to make it wait 15 seconds after logging in in before running.
