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.
