What I am trying to do is access information through scripting such as files that have been imported into the project. Is there any way to open up after effects in a non-gui mode the way nuke can be opened in terminal mode?

In windows, you can call AE from the command line like so:

afterfx -noui

The -noui switch tells the afterfx executable to stop the GUI from launching with it.

The -noui argument seems to work in OSX as well. I'm having difficulty getting AE to launch/run a script via the command line though (on OSX)
