Arrgh!
I tried the following and the resulting file did not contain my isosurface as 
created by the below script.  What am I doing wrong here?  Sorry for the 
stream-of-consciousness posts here…

>>> exporters=servermanager.createModule("exporters")

>>> x3dExporter=exporters.X3DExporter(FileName="test.x3d")
>>> view = GetActiveView()

>>> x3dExporter.SetView(view) # <===== NEW LINE

>>> x3dExporter.Write()

However, I'm still curious as to how the person in question discovered how to 
do it.  Where is all the good python documentation/lore stored?  The wiki 
wasn't too helpful to me in that respect, i.e., as a reference, although it has 
a lot of good ideas/information.

I recorded a script to try to understand how to export a time series of an 
isosurface as .x3d files so I can muck with them using blender.  But when I 
look at the script, the crucial bit of exporting the .x3d did not get captured. 
 Is that part not scriptable?  How can I go about finding out for myself which 
file formats can be exported from python scripts, if any?
Thanks

Here is the script that got captured:
