I am very new to perl. I've managed to get ImageMagick/PerlMagick
running.
http://www.imagemagick.org/
To start using perl I've been using swigs with the intention to "tweak"
the script as a departure point for learning perl.

This is an amazing way to handle large quantities of images and
hopefully, get a better sense of perl.
As an aside; I wonder if there is any way to hook into graphic power Mac
OS X.
