How to run something at Mac OS X by clicking on the desktop item

I want to have a number of items on my desktop which will be used to launch some apps. E.g. launcher for MacVim with specific settings for each project. I don't know how does it name in Mac OS. I was tried to create executable .sh script but it opens Terminal, it is annoying. What is Mac way to do this?


AppleScript applet. You can use do shell script to wrap your shell commands in an AppleScript applet that you can double-click.


I'm not sure I understand what you mean, anyway you can try Automator.
