/*

ItemsToCharacter - Aaron Steed

Takes a list of selected items from the library and dumps them sequentially on the timeline of a new clip
The new clip is formatted in such a manner as to create a state-machine animation which is the
format of most characters in my games

put the jsfl in: C:/Documents and Settings/user/Local Settings/Application Data/Adobe/Flash CS3/en/Configuration/Commands/
