The whole Xilinx ISE works on command line tools, for example. It simply
calls the tools in the right order with the right parameters. More or
less like the eeschema BOM plugins.

And every program spends few minutes just parsing and savingintermediate files. Besides, ISE is a programming environment, not agraphical editing tool. Vivado doesn't work this way anymore.
