On OS X you can install .ttf font files by double clicking them. This is a hassle when dealing with multiple files. Is there a command to install font files using the Terminal app ?

If the font files are zipped, unzip them by right-clicking the .zip folder and then clicking Extract. Now you'll see the available TrueType and OpenType font files: Right-click the fonts you want, and click Install.
Double-click on that new folder to open it and you should see the TTF file or files. Double-click one of the TTF files to open the font viewer. You should see an Install button in the top right corner. Click that button, and the font will automatically install and will be accessible to the desktop apps.
Command Prompt doesn't allow you to add fonts via the user interface. You have to manually add them via the Registry Editor. 2. On the right-panel you will see a list of fonts like Consolas and Lucida Console that are currently listed in the Command Prompt.
You could copy the fonts using
cp myfont.ttf /Library/Fonts/
or multiple files
cp fontsFolder/*.ttf /Library/Fonts/
