trace() is used by the Flash IDE. The MTASC equivalent is TRACE(),  
which you can set up on the command line to point to another  
function. I'm currently using the LuminicBox logger, but everyone has  
their favorite. Google 'actionscript logger' for more options. Most  
of them either work over a LocalConnection or an XMLSocket to pass  
information to the logger. XMLSocket loggers are faster but the ones  
I've seen are less robusty (Luminic, which is a LC debugger, has a  
nice tree view for your objects).

Good luck :)
