Help Creating a script file /scripting

I'm used to doing the majority of my fea work using the inbuilt scripting language of the program (e.g. a .inp file in ansys). It appears that salome will allow me to import a python script but I'm not sure how to write the script. Does anyone know where I can find documention? Or does anyone have a simple script that will create a few points, lines, areas, and volumes?

So to answer my own question: There are some example scripts at www.salome-platform.org/UserSection/salome_use/.

To make a vertex first you need to import the appropriate libraries

import salome
import geompy

#Then you can start creating
point1=geompy.MakeVertex(x,y,z)
k1=geompy.addToStudy(point1,'Name of Point1')

Now that seems like a lot of work compared to ansys's k,1,x,y,z For a point. As a result I hope to make an Ansys to Salome script translator. I'll use python.
