In response to a thread on the MTASC mailing list i've created a small
eclipse
plugin which will convert the flash help to eclipse help format.

If you download this :

http://relivethefuture.com/code/org.asdt.helpgen_1.0.0.jar

and put it in your eclipse plugins directory then you should get a new
entry on
the help menu 'Convert Flash Help' (you will have to restart eclipse if
its
running first)

When you click this a dialog appears for you to find the folder where your
flash
help lives, im on XP and mine was here :

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash
8\en\Configuration\HelpPanel\Help

make sure you choose that 'Help' directory within the 'HelpPanel'
directory, it
should have subdirectories for the flash help content.

When you hit ok it will generate a new plugin in your eclipse plugins
folder
called 'org.asdt.flashhelp'

simply restart eclipse and you should have all your flash help in the
table of
contents.

Note that it doesnt copy the actual html files into the plugin, the plugin
is
just a set of contents that refers to the original files.

NOTE: apparently on OSX you have to change the permissions of the created
plugin
to 666 before it shows up in eclipse. Im looking into fixing this at the
moment.

thanks,

Martin
