Nothing easy comes to mind.  You have to compare all the terms from  
all of the scripting additions with all of the terms from the  
FileMaker Dictionary.  Then you have to make sure that any time the  
english text matches the 4 letter codes match and vice versa.  In the  
cases where they do match you have to make sure that they are not  
events which might be handled differently.

I ran into a problem like this today, except with AppleScript Studio  
which implements some scripting additions differently.
