for i in `jot 100`; do

isightcapture $i.jpg

done



I left out one little detail that might not be obvious to everyone. For this to work, after you download isightcapture, you must either put it in one of the directories specified by your shell's $PATH variable, or else spell out the full path to isightcapture in the little loop.

So let's suppose you've put isightcapture on  your desktop, you could do something like this.  Make it executable (this might not be necessary)

chmod +x ~/Desktop/isightcapture

and then

for i in `jot 100`; do
~/Desktop/isightcapture $i.jpg
done




to capture 100 pictures of you staring at your camera which you can then load with QuickTime Player's File > Open Image Sequence.
