ActionDoc documentation tool for AS2

Documentation tools for traditional Actionscript has been around for a while, but it seems develpoment on most of these have halted for various reasons. Now there's an AS2 solution available.

Evan Jacover from Jellyvision Inc has created a documentation tool that parses Actionscript 2.0 classes and generates HTML files based on the structure of the classes and any comments embedded in the actionscript document. The comments are JavaDoc-style (@param, @returns as well as descriptions) and also supports the @see command for crosslinking between classes, something not yet supported by any other tool.

ActionDoc is still in beta, but looks good already. Well worth checking out.
