Bash scripting is certainly an easier way as far as the
programming goes!

One point about your script though, is that "identify" is
extremely slow.  If you use "exiftool" to get the information
it is much faster.

Here's a quick revision.  (More could be done, but I'm
pressed for time right now.)

#!/bin/bash

if [ $# != 3 ] ; then
  echo "Modo de uso: marco_foto.sh foto.jpg 20 \"comentario\""
  echo "foto.jpg -> nombre de la foto"
  echo "20 -> tamaño de la letra"
  echo "\"comentario\" -> comentario de la foto"
  exit 1
fi

if ! test -r $1 ; then
  echo "Cannot read file: $1"
  exit 2
fi

if [ $2 -gt 3 -a $2 -lt 100 ] ; then
  SIZE=$2
else
  echo "Font size \"$2\" out of range (3 to 100)."
  exit 3
fi

TIME=$(exiftool -s -s -s -ExposureTime            $1)
MM=$(exiftool   -s -s -s -FocalLengthIn35mmFormat $1)
ISO=$(exiftool  -s -s -s -ISO                     $1)
FF=$(exiftool   -s -s -s -FNumber                 $1)

if [ "." != ${1: -4:1} ] ; then
  NOMBRE=$1
else
  NOMBRE=${1%%${1: -4}}
fi

montage  -geometry +0+0  \
 -pointsize $SIZE  \
 -background black \
 -fill white       \
 -label "ISO $ISO \| f\/$FF \| $TIME s \| $MM \n $3" \
 $1 ${NOMBRE}_con_marco.jpg
