-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Thanks Chris. After writing my message, I actually got the idea to see if wikipedia had an article on swf. They did, and it mentioned swftools, which I then found through freshmeat.net. As I was downloading the tar archive, I checked my mail, and saw your reply. To make a long story short, swfextract claims the file I wanted to get the sound from has no sound, just images and movie clips, so that's that. However, it does look like it could definitely do the job though. Thanks again for your helpful reply.
