Notes on running erlswf on Windows:
1. Install Erlang (http://erlang.org) 5.6.x / OTP R12
2. Install Cygwin (http://cygwin.org) with at least the following packages:
	- bash
	- gnu make
	- svn
	- mercurial
2b. (alternative to 2) Install equivalent components from MinGW or other sources.
3. Start bash and add erlang to PATH:
	$ export PATH="$PATH:/cygdrive/e/Programme/erl5.6.5/bin"
   The path (/cygdrive/e/...) should reflect your erlang installation's bin directory.
3b. You may want to add this to your ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc
3c. Check the added path, e.g. "type erl"
4. Download/Build/Install/Run erlswf as described in README
4b. The symlinked ssacli may not work properly in cygwin. Just run ./ssacli.erl from the erlswf directory.
4c. A non-cygwin Erlang installation as described above cannot handle Unix-style path names in command line arguments, e.g. /cygdrive/c/Downloads/test.swf. Use escaped Windows-style instead:
	$ ./ssacli.erl dump C:\\Downloads\\test.swf
