Looking through applications in Terminal, I stumbled upon automator, which simply lets you run an existing Automator workflow from the Terminal. This could be useful in Perl, Bash, and other scripting.

[robg adds: The man page for the command is quite brief; it says just this: automator runs the specified workflow document. To create or edit a workflow, use the Automator application. There are no options.]
