redtamarin is a free and open-source utility based on the Tamarin project (eg. the Flash Player Virtual Machine) that allows to run AS3 code on the command-line.
However, since Tamarin only support the AS3 builtins (Object, Array, etc.), redtamarin added numerous native functionalities, so you can test if your program run under Windows or Linux, or read/write files, or send data with sockets, etc.
In other words, if Adobe AIR allows you to build desktop executable with a GUI, redtamarin will allow you to build desktop/server executable with a CLI.
redtamarin is a cross-platform program and it works on Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows.
