Thanks for the suggestion dsl.

echo "**** Creating Elf ****"
make all
make mem_init_generate
find mem_init/ -type f -name '*.hex' -exec cp --target-directory=../../system_sim {} \;
popd
echo "**** Running Quartus Implementation Flow ****"
quartus_sh --64bit --flow compile project.qpf

It works well enough for command line purposes. I actually do like the IDE because of syntax checking and macro expansion, but this will do for very quick and easy changes to a release.
