Surprised at the lack of support for Primalscript on this list :) It's
easily the most comprehensive and solid scripting IDE out there, and for
mid to large scale flash development i don't see how i could do without
it. In particular the dynamic code completion and code hinting for your
own methods as you write them is really really nice to have. Another
thing that's nice about something NOT being open source and NOT being
modified by every geek on the block is that you have actual customer
support heh. Like when i first tried out Primalscript 3 and found that
it handled alt gr keys in such a way as to make scripting
near-impossible on norwegian keyboards (alt gr+7 through alt gr+0 for
brackets and curly braces, and the alt gr key was invariably setting
keyboard focus to the menu bar). I notified them, immediatly got a
message back that they had ordered a norwegian keyboard and was going to
fix it asap. Was fixed within the week. Raw.
Never caught on to se|py unfortunately, mostly because i change the
colors on my code highlighting to run on a black background (black with
light grey letters is easier on my eyes in the long run. Less staring at
the sun), and se|py has line highlighting that's black, making the
current line invisible ;P Couldn't work with that. Funny how simple i am.

I love Sepy, except for the fact that it seems to have a memory leak
as it keeps shutting down every now and then with no warning, causing
me to lose whatever work I had not saved - even though I have the
latest version. It did it in the previous version too. Maybe its
just an anomoly and doesn't happen to anyone else. For that reason,
I went back to SciTE|Flash and the Actionscript editor. Eclipse was
just too much for me, (though in Flexbuilder 2, its' great) - it's
great for what it does if you're at or almost at guru level and can
figure out all those project workspaces and junk, but sometimes, I
just want to write a class and be done with it.
Anyway, Anggie, I think maybe what I was getting at, (and honestly
I'm very sorry if my little joke about it being a can of worms
somehow made you feel bad), was that perhaps you could sharpen the
question a little more so as to be not quite so broad. What is an
example of a specific problem you're trying to solve other than
"write clean code"? I guess when I saw your question, my thought
was, where would anyone begin to answer that question effectively
without writing a book on the subject. Could you give an example of
something you've struggled with, which maybe people here could assist
you in designing it better, making it more efficient? It probably
won't be me that will help though, I'm still trying to get better at
this stuff myself.

9-5 I've been working on the same Flash RIA for the last 3 months.
For this I have adopted to Sepy as this is what the rest of
the dev team are
using.
Prior to that I was an Eclipse / MTASC k.i.d.
Though when I get home and the collar comes and I'm
UNLEASHEDtm into the
flex beast that lays dormant during the day time within Flash Lemming.

Are you actually deploying Flex 2 applications? Doesn't it still
require the alpha/beta Flash 8.5 player?

Don't feel bad Anggie, I think it is an interesting topic
that is worthy
of discussion. The problem is that "best practices" are quite
subjective, and as such some people feel the need to be offended at
alternative suggestions :)
Of course, the method I use (Eclipse/MTASC) really is The
Best Practice,
as in my infinite wisdom and experience have found that every other
method is simply inferior, and only suitable for ignorant lemmings.
You're all lemmings, you hear me!! ;)

Ugh, I didn't mean to start another flame war. I just wanna
learn from

I'm sorry if my question was considered "a can of worms". If there's
any Indonesian Flash mailing list that is as good as this one, I'd
turn to them instead, keeping the worms in Indonesia.
