One of the things I like about OS X is Automator and its scripting. Shell
scripting is often better and faster but also harder to learn - and does not
tap into GUI programs very well (though it depends on the program, some do
allow it).

With Automator you can combine shell scripting, JavaScript, AppleScript, and
premade actions. That is what I used to come up with my solution.
