>> Find the action number for a given action by opening the Actions list, and scrolling the window right to reveal an extra column. For example, from ReaScript you would call the REAPER action "Item: Split item under mouse cursor" like this:

>> If you use ReaScript as an advanced macro language, this is the only API function you need to know.
