Well, I don't have 10.5, but this works for me in 10.4 to open a new terminal window and run vi (I left the command-t in there even though it opens up the fonts window).

[code]tell application "Terminal"
activate
tell application "System Events" to tell process "Terminal" to keystroke "t" using command down
do script "/usr/bin/vi"
end tell[/code]
