title: Open gnome terminal programmatically and execute commands after bashrc was executed
body: <p>I try to build a little script to start my development environment. For that task I try to open a gnome terminal with several tabs where automatically the rails server and autotest is started.
  But </p>
  
  <pre>gnome-terminal --tab -e "rails server" --tab --tab
  </pre>
  
  <p>does not work ("error creating the child process"). 
  Also</p>
  
  <pre>
  gnome-terminal --tab -e "bash -c \"rails server\"" --tab --tab` 
  </pre>
  
  <p>does not work.
  Any suggestions how to solve that problem?</p>
