  Description     : free Flash movie player

 Gnash is a Free Flash movie player, which works either standalone, or as a
 Firefox/Mozilla plugin.  Currently Gnash only has working support for the
 standalone Flash movie player. Development of the plugin is under heavy
 development at this time.

 Gnash supports the current Shockwave format, version 7. While all the
 ActionScript classes exist, not all of the methods defined by the SWF format
 documentation are implemented however, so not all flash movies work 100% if
 they utilize any of the unimplemented methods. This is one of the areas to
 work on to achieve full version 7 compliance.

  Included in the Gnash is an XML based messaging system, as specified in
 the Flash specification. This lets a flash movie communicate over a TCP/IP
 socket, and parse the incoming XML message. This lets a movie be a remote
 control for other devices or applications.
