I was wondering if it was possible to specify the output name of my SWF file in actionscript. That would be practical if I have to make a set of SWF files with small variations.  
I googled around, and browsed the flash help, but all I could find until now was the function exportSWF(). But I have no idea how to use it.

Can anybody give me some advice on this matter?  
Thanks.
