Running Multiple Commands in Different Command Line Tabs
This small tutorial is directed at people that still have to do a lot of initial setup every time they reboot your Linux machine and are looking for some automation, with a simple bash script.
Creating a bash script to run multiple commands isn't really a hard task. I wrote some articles before about this here and here.
The tricky part was that I wanted some of those commands to run in different tabs so I can easily access the outputs for debugging purposes (like Docker containers, log monitoring, etc…).
I also didn’t want to go to the trouble of installing and configuring tools like tmux or tmuxifier (if you want something more advanced, definitely check them out!) for such a simple task like launching a few command line tabs. So, I decided to do some research and I found that the solution is rather simple if your Linux machine has gnome-terminal installed.
