Automator Command Line Arguments and Features

Note: This isn't finished yet. Features are subject to change.

-d: Directory. Where you want to save the pictures the camera takes. Required parameter. String length currently capped at 100 characters.
-t: Template for file name. Default is "IMG%05d.fits"
-o: Observatory name. Recorded in the FITS header.
-e: Length of desired exposure time in seconds. Also recorded in the FITS header. Required parameter.
-s: Sleep time in between taking images. Not sure if this is implemented yet.
-n: Number of images to take. Required parameter.
-i: Initial index for the file name. Basically what number you want to start counting at in your file names. Default starts at zero.
-f: Overwrite. Defaults to false. Right now the program crashes if the name of the file the camera is currently writing matches the name of a file in the directory it's writing to (if set to false).
-v: Verbose. Not yet implemented.

Other Features
