You've hit the nail straight on -- a simple script would be perfect. Not only does it allow you the freedom to run one command to accomplish several tasks, its easy to repeat the process if that is needed.
Excuse me if you know this, but on the off chance that you dont....
Edit a file with vi, or similar editor, add your commands in the order you desire, and save the file. You'll need to make the file executable, and once that is done you can run your script.
To make it executable, use the chmod command (assuming the filename is myscript.bash):
Then you can run it by typing 'myscript.bash' on the command line.
The 'set -e' command causes the script to exit immediately on error; prevents command2 and command3 from being executed if command1 fails. You can do your own error checking, and maybe recovery, but the 'set -e' is the easiest. If these commands are long running, I like having an echo message in the script letting me know what is currently running:

Hello Guys,
Sometimes it is necessary to add more swap space after installation. For example, you may upgrade the amount of RAM in your system from 64 MB to 128 MB, but there is only 128 MB of swap space. It might be advantageous to increase the amount of swap space to 256 MB if you perform... (11 Replies)

gst-complete
gst-complete-0.8(1) User Commands gst-complete-0.8(1)NAME
gst-complete-0.8, gst-complete - perform bash completion for gst-launch command lines
SYNOPSIS
complete -Cgst-complete-0.8 gst-launch
gst-complete [--gst-list-mm] [--gst-mm=string] [--print]
DESCRIPTION
gst-complete-0.8 enables bash to provide context-sensitive tab completion for gst-launch command lines. See gst-launch(1) for the syntax of
gst-launch command lines.
You must have a version of bash that supports programmable completion. Such versions of bash provide the complete built-in command.
gst-complete is a wrapper script that runs the latest installed version of gst-complete-X.X. For example, if both gst-complete-0.7 and gst-
complete-0.8 are installed on your system, gst-complete runs gst-complete-0.8.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported by gst-complete-0.8 and gst-complete:
--help Display detailed usage message. You can also use -? to specify this option.
The following options are supported by gst-complete only:
--gst-list-mm List found major/minor versions. This option displays the versions that are available.
--gst-mm=string Force major/minor version. This option enables you to specify a specific version to run, if you do not want to run the
default version.
--print Print wrapped command line. This option displays the command that will be run, and then runs the command.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Generating the Registry of Available Plugins by Running gst-compprep
Run the following command in your .bash_profile or other appropriate place:
example% complete -C gst-complete-0.8 gst-launch
Example 2: Running the Wrapper Script and Displaying the Command Name
example% gst-complete --print
/usr/bin/gst-complete-0.8
FILES
The following files are used by this application:
/usr/bin/gst-complete-0.Executable for bash completion for gst-launch
/usr/bin/gst-complete Wrapper script that runs the latest installed version of gst-complete-X.X
