When developing I prefer to keep my resources external (graphics, levels, music etc)
but when it comes to delopying it is so much easier to have everything
embeded into a single swf-file (for most sites this is the only option).

So, how do you embed your data? Graphics and sound are of course
very easy, as they are recognized by the Flash IDE, but how would
you go about to embed xml-data or byteArrays? I'd hate to have to
host them on my site.
Are there no clever ways? I suppose I could have my xml in a string,
but what about byteArrays? Any ideas?
