Quick and dirty AppleScript to set up my terminal windows the way I like for a Rails project.

launch_rails_app.applescript

tell application "Finder"
	
	set FolderPath to (choose folder default location alias ((home as text) & "RailsApps"))
	set PosixPath to POSIX path of FolderPath
	
end tell

tell application "Terminal"
	
	activate
	
	-- Application folders
	tell application "System Events" to tell process "Terminal" to keystroke "n" using command down
	set the number of rows of front window to 72
	set the position of front window to {100, 20}
	do script "cd " & PosixPath & "app/models/" in front window
	
	tell application "System Events" to tell process "Terminal" to keystroke "t" using command down
	do script "cd " & PosixPath & "app/views/" in front window
	
	tell application "System Events" to tell process "Terminal" to keystroke "t" using command down
	do script "cd " & PosixPath & "app/controllers/" in front window
	
	tell application "System Events" to tell process "Terminal" to keystroke "t" using command down
	do script "cd " & PosixPath & "app/helpers/" in front window
	
	-- Cucumber folders
	tell application "System Events" to tell process "Terminal" to keystroke "n" using command down
	set the number of rows of front window to 72
	set the position of front window to {600, 20}
	do script "cd " & PosixPath & "features/" in front window
	
	tell application "System Events" to tell process "Terminal" to keystroke "t" using command down
	do script "cd " & PosixPath & "features/step_definitions/" in front window
	
	tell application "System Events" to tell process "Terminal" to keystroke "t" using command down
	do script "cd " & PosixPath & "features/support/" in front window
	
	-- Actually running the thing
	tell application "System Events" to tell process "Terminal" to keystroke "n" using command down
	set the number of rows of front window to 72
	set the position of front window to {1100, 20}
	do script "cd " & PosixPath & " && guard" in front window

end tell
