Use the 'sips' shell command
Authored by: kenahoo on Oct 09, '04 05:59:35PM
There's a /usr/bin/sips program in Panther that provides an interface to the "Image Events" suite but avoids the need to work with apple events. Unfortunately there's no manual page for it, but you can get a decent help message like so:

% sips --help
sips 1.0 - scriptable image processing system.
This tool is used to query or modify raster image files and ColorSync ICC profiles.
Its functionality can also be used through the "Image Events" AppleScript suite.

  ... more usage info follows ...
