This is perfectly standard, and the command line options are described 
in the documentation in section 2.1.2:
http://www.povray.org/documentation/view/3.6.1/215/

Specifically, for antialiasing the documentation is here:
http://www.povray.org/documentation/view/3.6.1/223/#s02_01_02_08_04

so your command line should look like:
povray file_name.pov +W1280 +H960 +A0.3
if you want a threshold of 0.3, for example...

Maybe it would be more convenient for you to put everything in an INI 
file if there are settings you use frequently.

Hope this helps,
