hey all!

i know you can get variables from a URL, but what if you want to pass
variables straight to an executable?

fort example, if i were to call a swf from a web page, i could just say
"myFile.swf?name=bob" and a variable "name" with a value of "bob" would be
present in my movie... how would i do that initialized variable-type-thing
with a projector?

thank!

Load Variables ("test.txt", "")
will read the vars from a url encoded string in the text file.
you should always make the last var "loaded=1" and test for that to make
sure they all got in.
