FFMPEG seems to be getting a lot of press, but if it's more "cartoon-
like" and less "movie-like" (and assuming you've given up on using IDL
and want to use the command line) probably you'd prefer it to be in an
animation-oriented format (like .gif). That will be easier to embed
into things (websites, presentations, etc) later as well because it
will play natively in/on almost everything.

In that case imagemagick would be the way to go. It is a collection
of image manipulations commands, which is installed by default on most
linux distributions and is also available through macports. If you
have it installed the command to use would be something like:
convert -delay 50 *.png timelapse.gif
