BTW give FlashDevelop[1] a try if you want AS, AS2, MXML, Flex SDK, Air SDK, Haxe support . It's open source (always good to support).
Quote from their main page... ---------------------------------------- FlashDevelop offers first class support for ActionScript (2 & 3) and Haxe development. Great completion & code generation, projects compilation & debugging, plenty of project templates, SWF/SWC exploration etc. FlashDevelop is also a great web developer IDE with source-control support (svn, git, mercurial), tasks/todo, snippets, XML/HTML completion and zen-coding for HTML. ---------------------------------------- [1] http://www.flashdevelop.org/ -Mark On Fri, Jul 19, 2013 at 9:05 PM, Mark Kessler <kesslerconsult...@gmail.com>wrote: > Well if you have the regular version of Visual studio's you can use > plugins like Amethyst [1], Tofino [2], or Code Drive [3].
