This lack of eclipse IDE is filled by a project called Eclipse Monkey, a dead (yes…dead..-.-’) component of  Project Dash which enables Eclipse to execute javascript functions on demand.

Eclipse Monkey will put a “scripts” menu on your Eclipse menu bar which is populated by the list of scripts (.js) inside the specified folder.

Here’s my Scripts>Actionscript dropdown menu

Installation:

1) Add project dash site ( http://download.eclipse.org/technology/dash/update )  to your eclipse’s update sites,
2) Restart eclipse,
3) Run create test project by selecting scripts menu,
4) Download actionscript snippets lib from here

…great deal :)

Here’s a video showing Eclipse Monkey at work

UPDATE:

take a look to “Pimp my Eclipse” post from Lee Brimelow (part 1 and 2) for further customizing your eclipse installation :)
