What languages are you developing in? We may be able to direct you to some specific tools. Command line is essential: You can find it under /Applications/Utilities/Terminal or in Finder: Macintosh HD->Applications->Utilities->Terminal These are my main dev tools: GitX (Git), Colloquy (IRC), Transmit (FTP), Vim or TextMate (text editors), MySQL Pro (MySQL client), Transmission (BitTorrent client)

Console is for viewing log files. For a full command line, you want /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.

  Wow, that's embarrassing. I have no idea why I put Console. I usually have my Terminal on the dock, so when I was looking up the path to it in Finder I must have thought Console. I upvoted you. Thanks.

Mostly python. Also do a fair bit of HTML/CSS/JS work. Also planning to give Ruby a try soon.

  Most of the applications I use have already been mentioned, so I'm just going to list the ones that haven't yet been mentioned. I do primarily Django/Python related work and use Eclipse with the Pydev (http://pydev.org/ http://pydev.org/) and Aptana plugins (http://aptana.com/products/studio3 http://aptana.com/products/studio3). For an interactive python shell, I prefer ipython (http://ipython.scipy.org/moin/ http://ipython.scipy.org/moin/). For installing python packages, setuptools (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools) is very handy. If you happen to have multiple gmail accounts, Mailplane (http://mailplaneapp.com/ http://mailplaneapp.com/) is great. For doing work with regular expressions, Regexr comes in handy (http://gskinner.com/RegExr/desktop/ http://gskinner.com/RegExr/desktop/) For MySQL DB management, Sequel Pro (http://www.sequelpro.com/ http://www.sequelpro.com/).
