That's what swfc is doing now.

Correct.

When you say ".frame 1" in swfc, this sort of means
"Now I start to define frame 1.".
It does *not* mean: "Now I'm finished with Frame 1- show it".

And btw. I think I'm going to increase swfc's frame numbers by one in the
next version, so that frame 1 in Flash and frame 1 in swfc are the same.
