Lines and curves

[Paul Hoffman]

These questions have probably been asked thousands of times here, but
I'm just a lazy C programmer, so I'll ask again;

Is it possible to change the line cap to something other than round when
drawing lines in flash(specifically swf)? Most vector (and some
gdi)graphic implementations allow for square, flat, and butt line caps.

Again I'm a lazy C programmer, so does anyone know the algorithm to
convert a quadratic bezier into a cubic bezier? Or is it even possible
to use a quadratic bezier in swf?

I can't think of any way to do this natively in Flash off the top of my
head, but you can do it in Freehand, or another vector package and them
import it.
