Probably not. It's more of an interface to the raw SWF format, which
is likely not the level you want to work with. It also doesn't fully
cover the format, primarily just the stuff I've needed along the way
and some of the other low hanging fruit. I primarily use ActionScript
related features, but even that's at a very low bytecode level.
