Answers.Text: Another format you could use is an EDL (edit decision list). These files have existed since video editing was done on tape, and FCP can still import them. You can create them in a text editor if you have to.

  I need to edit some video files and submit my work as FCP7 XML file (XMEML). In which software it can be done? I don't need any special and exotic features, I need only file cutting.
  
  Only one thing I need: it must work on WindowsXP or Windows 7 (XP is better). Maybe exists something small, what can run on old machine?

  If you have, or can rent Adobe Premiere you can [export as FCP XML](https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/exporting-projects-applications.html#export_a_final_cut_pro_project_xml_file) from that. Davinci Resolve [does too](https://video.stackexchange.com/questions/10283/fcpx-davinci-resolve-fcpx-color-grading-round-trip), but I'm not sure if the capability is included in the free version.
