Topic: Useful linux flash utility
Just wanted to point people at this little hack I wrote last weekend... http://www.beatniksoftware.com/blog/?p=48
I've been working on a Flash-based device prototype as a freetime project, after being inspired by the Chumby I received at FooCamp. (Thanks guys!)
For my prototype I'm just sticking with an x86 VIA board, and to avoid having talk with and pay Adobe just yet, I'm using the Linux flash browser plugin to run Flash. But to do this without requiring all the overhead of a browser, and to make interfacing with Flash simple via magic URLs, I needed a small standalone solution, so I wrote one.
Don't know if it's useful to anybody else, but oh well ;-)
