You can also use something like:
Code:
(command1 &) ; (command2 &) ; (command3 &)

This will launch every command into the background and execute all at the same time (barely).

im-launch

IM-LAUNCH(1)						      General Commands Manual						      IM-LAUNCH(1)

NAME

       im-launch - launch input method end execute session program

SYNOPSIS

       im-launch SESSION-PROGRAM

DESCRIPTION

       The im-launch command is used to start a input method framework server daemon such as ibus-daemon, set up the appropriate environment vari-
       ables for the client programs, and execute SESSION-PROGRAM such as x-session-manager.

       This command is usually not invoked from the console of a  normal  user	but  is  normally  invoked  by	the  /etc/X11/Xsession.d/70im-con-
       fig_launch.

TROUBLESHOOT

       If  you have any problem, see the first part of ~/.xsession-errors and look for the cause.  If you are running im-config while Debian (sid)
       system is undergoing a major library transition, you may need to manually set up ~/.xinputrc with  adjusted  library  version  number  etc.
       Please file a bug report to the im-config package using reportbug(1) describing your resolution experience.
