Starting MySQL from a Finder icon (CGI?)

Gwailo

B.A. Economics (Hon)
Ok here's my application. I would like to start MySQL from a Finder icon, rather than having to open the terminal shell and type in the command myself, and I don't want it to start at system boot, necessarily.

Is there a way to do this?

Someone's probably going to say, Yes CGI dummy! And then I'll try to pull my feet out of my mouth. BUT, how do I go about writing a CGI that is executable from any folder in the Finder (777 I guess) as an application?

Will AppleScript do this in an eaiser way?

Thanks all!
:p
