It is a lot of work to maintain any IDE and as the number of capabilities and supported platforms have expanded, standalone building has by definition had many features added to it. We have made it as simple as is possible while providing that expanded feature set. Indeed the process of building a basic standalone is simpler than it has ever been. > Could you possibly do something about this and facilitate these > processes of integration for future versions of Livecode?

To that end we provided complete details of what is required to update your standalone builder to the keeper of your IDE when last requested a long, long time ago (over a year at least). I did not offer to write the MC IDE for you and such an offer would not have been welcome, we already maintain an IDE, this is your IDE which is open source. It is down to those that maintain MetaCard to keep it up to date. I'm sure the current keeper of your IDE can verify this, and that consequently your statements are quite unfounded.
