I currently use Eclipse with Flex plugin for work but is very unpleased with this solution and since this Flex plugin is a commercial product it’s not really what I’m looking for.

The closest thing Ive come across for mac is using MacVim with plugins, i have been trying all kinds of syntax plugins, omni-completion plugins (no auto-completion plugin available) but nothing seems to work, the syntax plugins Ive tried gets weird results in most of the files Ive loaded, omni-completion is just not working no matter how many times i press CTRL-X or CMD-X. MacVim looks really nice but it also looks like it would be a lot of hard work just getting to know the editor.

I have known about FlexBean for NetBeans witch is my IDE of choice, there is also nbflex and flex-bean but development for all of this projects seem to have halted.

Does anyone out there know of a good IDE for developing actionscript on mac? what are people using?
