FAME is an acronym for Flashout, ASDT, MTASC, and Eclipse. It includes the following components:
* Flashout is an Eclipse plugin that provides an interface for compiling with MTASC and displaying trace statements.
* ActionScript Development Tool (ASDT) is an Open-source ActionScript editor for Eclipse. It provides class browsing, code hinting, templates, code folding, and many other features.
* Motion-Twin ActionScript 2 Compiler (MTASC) is an open-source command-line compiler for publishing Flash movies (SWFs).
* Eclipse is an open-source IDE, written entirely in Java, that supports a myriad of free and commercial plugins, including Flex Builder 2.
I've managed to get all these components working together inside of eclipse, but I'm yet to understand how to use ActionScript in this environment. Serious problems probably arise from my lack of knowledge about programming classes. I can write a functioning ActionSciprt programs that compile in MTASC, but I can't get them to compile using FAME. I'm pretty sure this is because i don't understand the production environment and formal class based programming procedures. You can follow my attempt to learn these things here.
