>From the docs:

   - When launch url is called, LiveCode checks to see if an application is
   available to handle the URL. If no such application exists, the command
   returns "no association" in the result
   - Use the mobileGetLaunchURL function to get the custom URL scheme that
   was used to launch the application. If the application was not launched
   using the custom URL scheme then empty is returned.

There following message and function appears to be only Android?

*on* launchDataChanged

   myLaunchHandler mobileGetLaunchData()
> *end* launchDataChanged


   - Use the mobileGetLaunchData function to get the application launch
   parameters. The returned array will contain the information that is set by
   the launching application.
