In AS3, need code for closing the output window....!

I think that will work with fscommand as I'm guessing its working like a projector. You can definitely use fscommand's "quit" approach if you publish to a projector.

What exactly are you trying to do? If you are using fla files then you're working in flash the authoring tool to create swf files which are intended to be used outside of flash.... (so unless you are specifically trying to change the behaviour of the IDE only, then this would not be relevant).

If you are trying to create an 'application' based on the swf that is able to be closed then you should look flash projectors or at Adobe AIR as a publish target - you can close the 'swf' /application window etc.

If you are trying to extend flash - the authoring tool/IDE - then you can do it with a combination of jsfl (flash authoring javascript) and swf panels etc, although I'm not sure whether you can close the test movie player from script.

The output window only traces info in the IDE - trace statements don't do
anything when playing in the browser or elsewhere.
