Yakuake script

This is a simple script to automatically start RoboComp's favourite terminal tool, Yakuake, with two named tabs running Ice's pub/sub broker Storm through our rcnode script and a component named comp1.

Additional blocks can be added to create and initialize new tabs in Yakuake.

Please, copy this code to a .sh file and execute it whenever you need to start your multi-component development environment.
