as3term – ActionScript3 Terminal released!
Today I’m releasing to the world my new open source project called as3term, a simple terminal-like application that lets you compile and execute ActionScript code. It’s very handy when you want to check some AS3 constructs without launching your IDE and creating new project.
It was built with Flex/AIR 2.0 and it uses the NativeProcess API to launch mxmlc compiler, which is part of the Flex SDK. The primary reason that I have built it was that I needed a simple app that I could code in few hours and that would serve me as a test and a showcase for my other open source project called NativeApplicationUpdater. You can download the installers for different OSs from its Google Code site as well as source code from SVN. In the video below you can also see it in action:
Flerry 1.1.2 released
Today I also started working on the 1.2 release, which will improve java path discovery on the Windows platform. I’m planning to reuse code written by my colleague Serge Jespers for Package Assistant Pro. It is simple native C code that checks the Windows registry to find where Java is installed.
