Since I do not enjoy typing in insanely long path names in command prompts, I decided to use FlashDevelop’s “ActionScript Documentation Generator”.

However, after I click “Generate”, the ASDoc exe gives the following error message:

```auto

                                                    ^

```

The code runs just fine when testing it, but when generating ASDoc, it gives me the error.

I tried adding that “-external-library-path” line by the recommendation of a blog entry, but it doesn’t seem to make a difference.

Google only gives me one other site, which doesn’t give me anything.

Any ideas?
