How would you run the Selenium process (thread) from a Java process so I don't have to start Selenium by hand?

The server:
import org.openqa.selenium.server.SeleniumServer;
public class SeleniumServerControl {
private static final SeleniumServerControl instance = new SeleniumServerControl();
public static SeleniumServerControl getInstance() {
return instance;
}
private SeleniumServer server = null;
protected SeleniumServerControl() {
}
public void startSeleniumServer() {
if (server == null) {
try {
server = new SeleniumServer(SeleniumServer.DEFAULT_PORT);
System.out.println(" selenium server " + server.toString());
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("Could not create Selenium Server because of: "
+ e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
try {
server.start();
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("Could not start Selenium Server because of: "
+ e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public void stopSeleniumServer() {
if (server != null) {
try {
server.stop();
server = null;
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("Could not stop Selenium Server because of: "
+ e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
The client:
browser = new DefaultSelenium("localhost", 4444, "*firefox", "http://www.google.com");
browser.start();

Also there are some additional settings you can use:
RemoteControlConfiguration settings = new RemoteControlConfiguration();
File f = new File("/home/user/.mozilla/firefox/default");
settings.setFirefoxProfileTemplate(f);
settings.setReuseBrowserSessions(true);
settings.setSingleWindow(true);
if (this.ServerWorks == false)
{
try
{
server = new SeleniumServer(settings);
server.start();
this.ServerWorks = true;
} catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
