I want XAMPP web server to auto start..

It requires these 2 terminal lines..

sudo su
/Applications/xampp/xamppfiles/mampp start

Can I add this to the start up?

All Unix commands run while OS-X is booting up are run as root and have the potential to significantly alter the behavior of your system.

Its probably worth a mention that the idea of Mamp is a "Development Environment". It wouldn't be advisable to host a live website with it. Anyway... it wouldn't be cost effective at all.

Its my job to develop websites. Its currently not very cost effective for me to spend the first 5 minutes of my day finding and entering the correct command.

Thanks for the link.

Cool, sorry if that post came across in a bad way.
