Just a quick note and HUGE thanks to Edwin for doing this!! This is something we've been after for a LONG time with Edwin ;)  Edwin is a mad genius and figured it all out.  Check out his blog entry for the details on HOW creating Mac extensions is done.

also, someone asked off list about executing shell scripts:  Yes, if you download the iTunes.zip, George has included all source files for examples.  He's actually calling shell scripts to run iTunes from what I remember him telling me.

Also, you can look at Flasc's Compiler.as for a sample of how I built the AppleScript command in Flasc and pass it as a string to FlappleScript.  It might not be the most elegant way to do it, but it works ;)

Hi list,

I'm happy to announce that FlappeScript is now on OSFlash! FlappleScript
is an extension to the Macintosh version of the Flash authoring that
enables running AppleScripts:

http://www.osflash.org/FlappleScript

George Medve has already been using the extension to create some great
panels great panels: a FlappleScript terminal, and a Flash IDE hosted
iTunes remote! John Grden is using the extension now, to have Flasc for
Mac automatically invoke MTASC.

More on how the project came about, is at
http://www.vanrijkom.org/archives/2006/07/flapplescript_1.html .

Enjoy!
Edwin

PS: We still need a project logo. I've tried mimicking the 'Snapple'
logo, but I failed miserably. If someone's up for the challenge, let me
know :)
