extract all text from a .swf with asv 3.12

actionscript viewer (asv) has been updated again. it sports a new command to extract all the text from a .swf. could be really handy for providing a translation or editing agency with copy from your movies. nice addition to a handy utility. the upgrade is free to existing asv owners. (btw, the command is a little buried...it's under File > Batch > Save All Text).

ASV can extract all the audio! Am I missing something here?

I could have used that feature just yesterday... Did it by hand with the Movie Explorer instead.

Only thing I truly miss from ASV is extraction of audio. I sometimes need to re-use audio from older stuff. I usually have the FLA on a backup somewhere, but the SWF's are so much easier available as they are still on the web in most cases.

gotta give it to Buraks,(ethics aside) the app does a great job at decompiling swfs

thanks for pointing the new cmd out..
