creating a simple, frame counter to place on the stage

Hey Folks,

I'm wondering if this can be done....

Is it possible to place ActionScript in a Frame that would generate a Frame Counter "App", live, onto the Stage, while I'm working in real time?

I know you can add code to a dynamic TextField that would create this "Frame Counter" to a published or exported movieClip, but can something like this be done where it's actually happening in real time, while your creating?

Peace,
