    seriously, you have to use Flex/Flash Builder or FDT. It's crazy not to.

    I tried out TextMate with AS3 Bundle, FlashDevelop (which is ok) but mostly used to code in Flash because the syntax highlighting made me comfortable psychologically. Flex Builder is missing some of the syntax highlighting, not sure if Flash Builder will add it, but screw that.

    I used to waste so much time compiling, seeing errors, recompiling, not being sure where the errors were, making silly little mistakes, spelling things wrong, not paying attention that they weren't highlighted right, missing imports, bah! So stupid.

    Flex/Flash Builder forces you to fix everything before you can compile, saves SOOOO much time omfg.

    • AMEN BROTHA!!!! The (basically) runtime code checking is very worth it. TM isn't bad, but not as complete.tommyo
