There are none. FCP is resolutely unscriptable, it has always been
unscriptable, and unless that team has a metaphorical, or perhaps literal,
gun held to their head, it will always *be* unscriptable. The last time I
talked to one of that team about it, their answer was "learn C and write a
plugin that implements scripting".

Thanks guys.

Last I checked, it also had so many custom controls that UI scripting was
effectively useless.
