I confirm the code above requests that 'mc' is a mask for 'txt'.
That is the only visible pixels of 'txt' should be the ones overlapping
the pixels of 'mc' and 'mc' should not be visible.
The comment should read: "use mc to mask a TextField"

I haven't tried, but I belive Gnash would turn it into a nice
textured writing, wouldn't it ?
