Saves you making real functions for tiny little functions – handy.
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, function(e:TimerEvent){trace("inline function")});
To remove it, it can only be done when it is called (see the dudes link below for the source for this!)
myButton_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
function(e:Event)
{
trace(e.currentTarget.name+" was just clicked!");
//removing anonymous listener
e.currentTarget.removeEventListener(e.type, arguments.callee);
});
