FDT has been the best thing that I've been able to find for coding AS2 on the Mac. I like Eclipse as I use it for Java development as well. Anyway, auto completion, some minor refactoring features and integration with Ant and version control make it a hell of a tool.
It does cost money though and does have a few bugs, but overall it has been totally worth it. Just my two cents. Take it or leave it. -Chris On 10/17/06, Troy Rollins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

The built-in bundle seems compelling, however its features are broken, and as it is a third-party bundle, it does not appear to be maintained. Sometimes I mess with the bundle to see if I can make it work better, but haven't had much luck. I don't program perl, for one thing. I don't think that should be a requirement for improving AS development workflows. This makes TextMate a better-than-average text editor, but not much to rave over regarding an improved actionscript workflow under OSX. -- Troy RPSystems, Ltd. http://www.rpsystems.net _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
