All three steps can be automated. Check my blog entry at http://manicdee.livejournal.com/91750.html - make sure to read the linked articles too!

I use some "cleverly" named AppleScripts to do things like start a MySQL server in one tab, load the Django web service in a second tab, and start a shell with virtualenvironment loaded in a third tab.
