Flex is a very powerfull tool; it imports things you use automatically and has a autocomplete function as you type and when you type “.” AND when you hit ctrl + space; you dont need a fla just a main .as script

however when i debug it to see the trace messages(only way in flash) I get  
[SIZE=2][LEFT][SWF] C:\Documents and Settings\Discipol\Desktop est\resources\pictures\grass1.swf - 2.648 bytes after decompression  
…a thounsand times this  
[SWF] C:\Documents and Settings\Discipol\Desktop est\bin\resources\pictures\grass1.swf - 2.648 bytes after decompression

just floods the console output… hot to disable these (or disable all such outputs and leave only my traces)[/LEFT]
