I'm still looking at the source, but there are things that can be done more elegant using regexps.

For example:

	//Function which transforms the line into an after effects text by removing the { } things
	function transLigne (ligne) {
		var new_ligne = "";

		for($i=0;$i < (ligne.length);$i++) {
			if(ligne[$i] != '{') {															//if it's not a {, I copy it.
				new_ligne += ligne[$i];
			} else {
				if($i != 0 && new_ligne[$i-1] != ' ') {						//if it's a {, I add a space 
					new_ligne += ' ';
				}//if
				while(ligne[$i] != '}') {													//I remove the things in {...}
					$i++;
				}//while
			}//else
		}//for

		return(new_ligne);																		// I return the result
	}//function

Using regexp's (just pay attention to the 2 lines in the function, ignore the rest ):

CAssEvent.prototype.getPlainText = function getPlainText()
{
	var sTmp = new String(this.Text);
	return sTmp.replace(/\{[^\{]*\}/g, ""); //looking at your source here should be " " instead of ""
}

options_ligne[9] = ligne.substring(num_option,100000000);

Instead of putting a large number as end, u can just put the start, because if the end is undefined, it will take the text till the end (as specified in the ecma-262).
