Hi Chris, Thanks so much for you help. I am really trying to get this project done using open source tools.
I discovered the document you added to the wiki here... http://www.swftools.org/swfc-fileformat.txt ... though I might point out that this is not linked to from the "references" section of the site. Rather it is in the documentation section under a bit of an odd title. No matter, I got to it in the end. This tool is really terrific, and I'm enjoying using it.

Simply formatted script files that can be interpreted and then compiled into SWFs. .sc as you may have worked hout, as the capability to contain and compile Action Script, http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/action_scripts/actionscript_dictionary/ besdes doing it's own thing, so many of the commands listed there, work. > Is there a reference for this language that is freely available?

Unless anyone knows otherwise ( Mattias? ), as far as I am aware, all very much wysiwyg and witoyo. Why not look at the examples linked from the main site, http://www.swftools.org/references.html this list, and elsewhere, for inspiration? There is a ('n outdated ) file format specification contained in the doc folder of the distribution. I've posted the contents on the wiki, http://wiki.swftools.org/index.php/Sc_file_format in case you haven't read it. HTH Perhaps some of us should get together and create such a beast as you are after, using the new wiki itself? Regards, Chris. > Thanks so much. > > Bill > > >
