 This seems to work for me, so I wanted to share.  I use Presto on OS X (Tiger actually).  And got tired of opening Terminal, starting Hypersonic database, then starting Presto.

So I used launchd

a start-up program is OS X to start processes at log in.  You need to create plist's - I created one for Hypersonic, one for Presto.  See the launchd apple site above for examples, and more info.

It seems to work ok.
