The way we have programmed our robot's autonomous has been very similar to that for years now (at least since 2009)
Our autonomous mode is a simple script (similar to ABS) that in essence spoofs any button command, like
Code:
Forward 1.0 10.0
Wait 2.000
Shoot
would drive forward at 100% for 10 feet, wait 2 seconds, then fire.
It allows us to quickly change autonomous mode while testing and such, because we are only altering a .txt file that doesn't have to compile.
All we are missing is some bit of software (on the DS or cRIO) that would provide a record function and spit out a .txt
