This is one of the things I used to like about Maya. It appeared to be a command driven editor and everything you did in the UI translated to a command line command. You could set it to show the commands and even capture them and use them as a start for generating a script

I don't know if it's still that way after the transition from Mel to Python. I haven't used Maya in 15 years

Even more, Maya also was like a 3D editor OS/Engine. The UI itself was written in the scripting language (~1500 melscript files) using the primitives from the "engine".
