 swfc:
 
+    * object rel coords, as in obj1.(x,y) and monkey.nose
+	"follow me" feature:  default, or should it be explicitly specified?
+
     * .replace command
-    * output filename (name.sc -> name.swf)
+	.crossfade command????
+
+    * .sound file.wav ?  
+	syntax for single sound hits, looping, synch sound stream.
+
+    * text:  newlines
+
+    * dump format for ingestion into swifty?

+    --------- 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      ------------

+

+	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)?
