flixel.py

#! /usr/bin/python

# flixel (the script) is based on Adam Atomic's 'flx.py' script for
# creating various flixel-related objects in a fresh Flex Builder project.
# flixel (the script) changes the python path to be appropriate for Mac OS,
# generates any needed directories on its own behalf,
# relies on an environment variable (FLIXEL_HOME/lib) to locate flixel's org/...
# directory, and generates a Makefile for use with mxmlc.  this behavior can be
# turned off by flipping flexBuilder back to true.  it assumes mxmlc is in PATH.
# flixel (the script) also supports a three-argument version like so: 
# 'flixel com god_bear Laxdaela' to generate a package hierarchy.
# finally, flixel (the script) capitalizes the given
# project name so that no classes have lowercase names.

# in the future, it could be good to provide width/height/zoom as optional args.
