-Priorities:
-1. Make the swfs that pdf2swf generates smaller

-3. General improvements
-4. Make pdf2swf cope with more complex pdfs
-5. Do some sample swfs for swfcombine

+# De messed with this file on the night of Feb 11
+#	re-ordered some swfc objectives according to my own warped priorities :-)
+#	added a couple of items.
+#	added the doco TODO items at the end
 
-Make the swfs pdf2swf generates smaller:
+swfc:
 
-    * At the moment, the output of pdf2swf is a bunch of
-      polygons. Try using seperate shapes for each character,
-      and packing all shapes of a page in a font. 
+    * object rel coords, as in obj1.(x,y) and monkey.nose
+	"follow me" feature:  default, or should it be explicitly specified?
 
-Make pdf2swf cope with more complex pdfs:
+    * .replace command
+	.crossfade command????
 
-    The following pdf properties are not yet dealt with:
-    * Links
-    * dashed lines
-    * (type 3 and truetype fonts)
+    * .sound file.wav ?  
+	syntax for single sound hits, looping, synch sound stream.
 
-Make pdf2swf faster:
+    * text:  newlines
 
-    * Embedded fonts which are used more than once are also converted more
-      than once. Implement a font cache, like the one in xpdf. (font->getID().num
-      seems to be unique for every font)
+    * dump format for ingestion into swifty?
 
-Do some sample swfs for swfcombine:
+    --------- imaginary dividing line between "high priority" and "lower priority" ------------
+    --------- in my opinion the stuff above is useful/necessary for basic          ------------
+    --------- animations -- the minimal tool kit w/which cool demos can be         ------------
+    --------- produced and swifty can be taught to do really neat things.	   ------------
+    --------- from here on down we are also looking at useful good stuff, but      ------------
+    --------- decent animations can be made without these extra nice features      ------------
+    --------- you may disagree about where to draw this line :-)                   ------------
 
-    * Some swf for displaying other swfs frame by frame (e.g. with next/previous
-      buttons) would be very handy for swfs generated by pdf2swf
+    * textinput box object?
 
-General Improvements:
+    * default output filename (name.sc -> name.swf) if unspecified
 
-    * temporary file name generation is broken: pdf2swf/pdf2swf.cc, pdf2swf/xpdf/gfile.cc
+    * change .swf to .flash ?  
+	import swfs with .swf instead of .movie?
+
+    * more colour names?  X11 colour names?  (we are Linux after all...)
+
+    * .hide/.show?
+
+    * .rotate
+	wasn't this going to be called .orbit?
+
+    * store instance coordinates for .put with same name after .del?
+
+    * macros?  looping?  ways of reducing repetitive coding (and the length of sc files)?
+
+
+pdf2swf:
+
+    * Implement dashed lines (maybe by using fillstyle to keep Shapes small, maybe
+	      optional- use another color for dashed lines)
     * fix memory leaks
-    * rfxswf: modules/swfshape doesn't allow changing to fillstyle 0
-    * big jpegs sometimes have wrong colors
-    * write manpages for swfstrings and swfdump
-    * --version should work in all tools.
+    * some bounding boxes are too big
+    * support for ttf fonts in --fontdirs
+    * upgrade ttf2pt1
+
+font2swf:
+    
+    * implement support for truetype fonts.  [yes please :-)]
+
+swfcombine:
+
+    * Handle Bounding boxes
+    * Relocate  SetTarget "/content"  stuff, too?
+    * allow "combining" Actionscript and SWF.
+    * "swfcombine -m" (e.g. "swfcombine -mT test.swf") duplicates depths:
+	relocate depth in normalcombine()
+    * "swfcombine -mT file.swf -x 300 file2.swf" doesn't work
+
+swfextract:
+    
+    * mp3 extraction should also work for movieclips.
 
-Cleanups in rfxswf-lib:
+wav2swf:
     
-    * LPTAGs etc. should be TAG*s
-    * function names should have a prefix (rfxswf_ or swflib_ or sth.)
-    * GetMatrix should be named GetMATRIX, as it gets a MATRIX datatype. Same for CXFORM etc.
+    * -r flag doesn't work without -d option.
+
+librfxswf:
+
+    * Actionscript has memory leaks
+    * Font routines still need a little more work (shape alignment)
+
+other:
+
+    * swfcrop
+    * swf2fig
+
+swfpreview:
+
+    * extract preview of specific frame N
+
+doco:
+
+    * basic command set 
+ 
+    * example set illustrating basics
+
+    * cook book:  how to get familiar effects 
+	(fade/wipe/titles/scrolling/false perspective etc)
+
+    * complete list of all required packages and libs and how to get/build them
+
