Have you tried --batch=foo.bar ?
About opening a terminal or whatever -- maybe .../MacOS/Maxima is a
wrapper which opens a terminal and executes the Maxima program proper.
To avoid opening a terminal, maybe you can find the Maxima program
execution within that wrapper and execute that. I don't have a Mac so I
can't check that myself.
