This mght seem like a funny question, but is it possible to execute 
actionscript at runtime, from code loaded from, say, xml files?

I don't know about the nitty gritty details about bytecode generation from the 
scripts, but I guess at some level that has to happen in the runtime or via an 
emulation layer.  But in plain terms, you could run a script from another 
language against the flash runtime in the same manner that for example Ruby 
would run on Java's vm like in JRuby.   The main difference is that the with 
Alchemy you can run the standard Ruby interpreter and not have to build your 
own interpreter from scratch.

In Scott's Lua example he had what looked like a prompt running in a swf and 
copy and pasted in code which executed in real time.  What's max/msp?

        Ok.. Here starts my confusion.. Running in flash? You mean generate avm2
        bytecode from it not like emulating comodore games in flash...?

        Real time? Real time code update? Like max/msp?
        
        Sorry.. I am just wondering.
