[GD-General] RE: scripting GUI apps for better workflow

[David H. <Da...@su...>]

-] Flash MX doesn't seem to have any programmability built into it.  I
-] know there are macro recorders, and I've heard some people talk about
-] scripting with COM, but that is all pretty new to me, so I'd
-] appreciate any clues about whether/how to try this.

I seem to remember that Flash MX has the ability to embed actual flash
movies as GUI elements.  There's an API available to you in actionscript
that can call functions exported by MX.  You might be able to use
actionscript to automate some of your workflow.  You could even possibly
interact with perforce using the sockets interface or the web interface from
a flash movie.
