There are three locations where you can store command, effect, and tool files so they can be
accessed in the authoring environment.
For scripts that will appear as items in the Commands menu, save the JSFL file in the
Commands folder in the following location:
Windows 2000 or Windows XP:
boot drive\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application
Data\Macromedia\ Flash 8\language\Configuration\Commands
Mac OS X:
Macintosh HD/Users/userName/Library/Application Support/Macromedia/Flash 8/
language/Configuration/Commands
For scripts that will appear as extensible tools in the Tools panel, save the JSFL file in the
Tools folder in the following location:
Windows 2000 or Windows XP:
boot drive\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application
Data\Macromedia\Flash 8\ language\Configuration\Tools
Mac OS X:
Macintosh HD/Users/userName/Library/Application Support/Macromedia/Flash 8/
language/Configuration/Tools
For scripts that will appear as timeline effects in the Effects panel, save the JSFL file in the
Effects folder in the following location:
Windows 2000 or Windows XP:
boot drive\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application
Data\Macromedia\Flash 8\ language\Configuration\Effects
Mac OS X:
Macintosh HD/Users/userName/Library/Application Support/Macromedia/Flash 8/
language/Configuration/Effects
If a JSFL file has other files that go with it, such as XML files, they should be stored in the
same directory as the JSFL file.
