I've just made this modest applescript for shaking via command line a bunch of qt movies, not elegant but works.  
Someone may find it usefull.

CODE  
on open fileList

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(\* the path for saving the rendered files \*)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;set savePath to "/Saving/Path/"

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(\* the path for making a batch shell script \*)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;set scriptsPath to "~/"  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;set scriptName to "queue"  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;set scriptPath to scriptsPath & scriptName

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(\* create and errase the batch list in case is not blank \*)  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;do shell script "touch " & scriptPath  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;do shell script "echo \"\"" & " \> " & scriptPath  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;do shell script "chmod u+rwx " & scriptPath

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;repeat with aFile in fileList

Do me a favor and either upload these scripts your doing to highend as a "tool" or add it to the "tips" section. It would make it easier for people to refind them in the future.
