As for porting your AS2 project over, you may have some difficulty with that, depending on how much of your code in in the .fla file. I suggest you develop a simple game (like Pong :) to get the hang of things before attempting your port. I expect that most of your code is reusable, but you may want to refactor large portions of it to work more intuitively in the new language.

Having read this:

I think I'm better of refactoring the whole lot from scratch.  There's so many small changes and the project itself is such a beast that I'm better off just starting with a blank canvas and porting over the classes one at a time.  It's going to be a bit painful but well worth the effort in the long term.

I'll still be able to write the AS code in TextMate but properly using mxmlc is a ways off...  Project for next year perhaps.
