Hey guys, I'm trying to create an automator that will open safari, enable private browsing, go to my site, and log myself in. The problem is I need a terminal command line that will ensure private browsing is enabled. Any tips / help is appreciated. Thanks

It would probably have to edit the plist file for Safari. I'm not at my Mac to give this a try though. Here's an example of what it might look like. Try looking through your plist file for Safari to see if you can see what name it uses.
Code:
defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari PrivateBrowsing true
