[plt-scheme] obtaining list of opened files in DrScheme

Thanks for the pointers. Apologies in advance if this is a silly question,
but how do I obtain the bindings to the drscheme:unit:frame<%> interface?
Looking around the code, it seems that type is often imported into a tool
unit, but I could not find any definition.
