Ming is a Flash (SWF) output library. It can be used from PHP, Perl, Ruby, Python, C, C++, Java, and probably more on the way. It comprises a lot of Flash functionality, including features of Flash 6. Specifically, it lets you create: shapes (including morphs), text, sprites (aka movie clips), buttons, and actions in flash movies, plus more. The goal for Ming is to abstract away all of the mundane specifics of the SWF file format. This package contains the c++, perl, python, php and tcl-plugin. To enable the php-plugin you have to add extension=php_ming.so to the appropriate place in /etc/httpd/php.ini
