There are two ways to create a textfield, a dynamic way using the
drawing API (unsupported by Gnash) and a static way using DEFINETEXT
tags.

To work around the missing drawing API in gnash I produced the
Dejagnu.swf loadable module, which includes a static textfield
definition and provides some facilities.

The easy way to use it is as follows:

--- test.as ----------------
note("here's some text");
--- test.as ----------------

$ makeswf -iDejagnu.swf:dejagnu -o test.swf dejagnu_so_init.as test.as 
dejagnu_so_fini.as

Then play test.swf, making sure that Dejagnu.swf is in the same dir as 
'test.swf'.

The dejagnu_so_init.as and dejagnu_so_fini.as  can be found in 
testsuite/actionscript.all

Oh, I think you need latest Ming release, run gnash with -v to catch any 
problems with Ming.
