The cross-compiler that generates ActionScript from TypeScript definitions?
Yeah, I could probably do that. Generating both ActionScript and externs
files adds some complexity that I'd prefer to hide from ActionScript
developers, though. Ideally, most developers wouldn't need to know about
the externs files.

I guess I could redesign dts2as to look for FlexJS and ask it to
automatically build the final SWC file with both the generated ActionScript
and the generated externs files. That would simplify my tutorials either
way, since developers won't need to run compc manually.

What's the usual environment variable a developer might add for FlexJS? Is
it FLEXJS_HOME?
