[Laszlo-dev] adding printing to LZX -- need help

[Oliver Steele]

There are a few others, such as 'trace', 'fscommand', and 
'getVersion',, listed in Compiler.py.  (Search for 'trace', including 
the single quotes.) These are only turned on for LFC code, since they 
aren't in ECMAScript and don't obey the scope rules --- for instance, 
the Flash compiler would probably get something like this wrong:
   function doit(print) {print(1)}
   function logger(arg) {gLog.push(arg)}
   doit(logger)

We don't want to add any more of this to the compiler than necessary, 
though.  Remember, the aim is to be able to implement required 
functionality for the Flash runtime, not to expose the Flash APIs 
directly and make it easy to write non-portable code.
