These set of commands are called scripts and are written in a language that FrameScript allows. Once you click a button, FrameMaker starts executing these commands on the documents.

Almost anything that you can do manually can be done automatically by writing scripts in FrameScript. With FrameScript, you can automate formatting, re-organizing the structure, text and image replacements, change values of variables, apply master pages, convert unstructured to structured FrameMaker documents, and so on.
Imagine if you were asked to change all the main headings of your documents into table headings, put sub headings in first column and body content in the second column of the same table row. Well, if the document was just a few pages you could manually do it by just inserting many tables in the document and copying and pasting the content into it row by row. Now imagine if there were thousands of such pages and you just had one day to do it correctly. Seems impossible unless you know how to use FrameScript.
