It isn't so much a LC issue, you need to update via the SDK manager. On my Mac, I double-click the "android" file at /android-sdk-macosx/tools/android. That launches the SDK manager where you can choose the updates you want to install. I'm still using the old command line tools, but I believe

Well you will be glad to know the search (and replace) feature has been so vastly improved that what used to take over a minute to search all substacks for, now takes 3 or 4 seconds. The replace function is just as fast. You could search for "the effective label" and replace it with "the label"

Transitioning to LiveCode 9...

First, I love all the things added to LiveCode 9 and, while I haven;t had a chance to download 9.0.1 yet, I am sure it (and 9.0.2, etc.) will just keep getting better. However, I must vent that transitioning old stack to LC9 is now always easy. In some ways (text handling) I find the degree of

Hoping someone can help me shortcut this.. If I start with an alpine image, what things do I need to add so that LC executables will run? (using the -ui flag) Or would I be better off starting with another base? I'm looking to end up with smallest possible docker that can do the job.
