Command-line Blog software recommendation

Can anyone recommend blogging software with the following features:

% I can make entries from the command-line.

% Ideally, has "wiki-like" markup as a shortcut to writing HTML and/or
other tricks that help when blogging from the command line. Example:

> blog --auth=user:pw --category=Blather "This entry's got nothing to \
say, but I'm posting it anyway\n\nI know if I put my mind to it, I \
know I could make a good point here\n\nList of fruits: * lemon * \
apple * pear"

Where the double "\n" would be a paragraph break and the "*" would
become an HTML list, and so on.

% Should be fairly "popular" and well-maintained.

% Lets me categorize + ideally subcategorize posts

% Lets me schedule posts for the future. Example: I enter the post
now, but it's not displayed until next week.

% Lets me approve/deny comments before they're displayed. Ideally,
captcha for comments or some other way to avoid comment spam (I don't
want to see/deny 100s of comment spams daily)

% Trackbacks (I have no idea what this is, but it sounds cool)

% Open source and ideally PHP/MySQL (I want the ability to view/edit
the "guts" of my blog)

% Something I'd install on my webhost (my account "comes with"
b2evolution, Nucleus, and WordPress, and I have non-root shell access
to install other blogs), not a hosted service. I'd consider a hosted
service if it's free + ad-free, but that seems unlikely.

I realize I can write command-line interfaces to most blogs (using
MySQL inserts, "curl -d", "lynx -post_data", etc). I'm ideally looking
for one where a command-line tool already exists.
