This is not exactly true Ralf. Sure most of the code works exactly same way.
But there are definitly some drawbacks/problems: I can not remember which
but we were
forced to not use "-strict" mode in mtasc back in as2lib times because some
things were not able to achieve with both mtasc and flash compiler.
Furthermore
some things didn't validate. So we had to check every release for every
possible
compiler (including the flex compiler). So no: Its not really true,
compilers really
mean you need to check compatibility.

yours
Martin.
