Restart Django development server using AppleScript

Sometimes it's quicker to call the script than open Terminal and restart server manually

property applicationName : "Terminal"
tell application applicationName
 activate
 tell application "System Events"
 tell front window of process applicationName
 try
 key code 8 using control down
 keystroke "python manage.py runserver" & return
 on error theError
 display dialog ("Sorry, an error occured:" & theError) buttons "OK" default button "OK" with icon stop
 end try
 end tell
 end tell
 tell application "TextMate"
 activate
 end tell
end tell
