  Actually, while a command line interface is a good start, it's not
really sufficient. For one thing, this would only work for sites that
you knew before hand were v10. Gnash doesn't know the version of the swf
file until after it's been started, so that's where a tighter
integration would be required. Ideally if lightspark has a v10 file
loading a v7 file, then it would need to be able to use Gnash for that.
LocalConnection in Gnash does work, so that would be one way of
communicating.

  At this point, I'm not sure of the best way for Gnash and Lightspark
to work together, but think it's a good idea that we figure this out.:-)
