The above version of lcStackBrowser, a plugin alternative to the IDE
Application Browser, is now available at www.lcsql.com.  This release is
free to existing customers.

Bugs fixed in this release include:

   - New main stacks created from within lcStackBrowser and existing stacks
   opened from within lcStackBrowserwere not shown in the display.
   - New stacks created in lcStackBrowser did not observe the Livecode
   Preference for setting their destroyStack property.  As part of this fix,
   the size of stacks created within lcStackBrowser will be the same as those
   created in the IDE.
   - Sorting cards by number used an alpha sort instead of numeric.
   - Renaming a group resulted in an incorrect display of its members.
   - Made several internal changes to make things work more reliably.

In addition, there are two enhancements in this release:

   - When you select a control in the IDE, it will be highlighted in the
   lcStackBrowser display and vice versa.


   - lcStackBrowser now provides a way for you to request a update of its
   display.  This can be useful if your scripts trigger a change for which the
   IDE does not have an equivalent message.

To communicate with lcStackBrowser, send the message "lcsb_updateDisplay"
to the lcStackBrowser stack.  The message has one required parameter which
is the action to be taken by lcStackBrowser; other parameters may be
necessary depending on the action.



Currently, only one action is available - "resetLockedStatus". This action
has one optional parameter, a list of stack names, one per line.  This
action causes lcStackBrowser to re-evaluate the locked status of the
specified stacks and adjust its display accordingly.  If the list of stack
names is not provided, all stacks in the display will be re-evaluated.
