Run shell script without Terminal?

I have a shell script that I run everytime at startup. When it executes, it opens Terminal to execute the command, then I need to manually quit each time. It gets annoying.

I'm looking for a way to bypass terminal, and to just have the command executed at start up, quietly in the background.

Thanks in advance! (Btw I am using OS X Tiger)

Have the shell script run in automator, save it as an application, and run it at startup. It should quit when its done.

Nope :confused:

It did'nt work...it just opened, and nothing happened. It hung.

how about putting "killall Terminal" at the end of the script

putting that at the end locked up my system, twice, then one last shot, it did nothing.

I removed it....Don't know If I did it right or not.
