This is more-or-less correct.
I hope that someone will confirm/correct/ or otherwise educate.
In LiveCode 8 DP 1:
1. Open the dictionary
2. Select the small "Guides" tab at the top of the window.
3. Select "Extending LiveCode" from the drop-down menu at the top left.
4. Select "Specifications" from the menu on the left.
5. Scroll down, and you'll eventually find a "Foreign Handlers" section.
This section explains the current foreign function interface (FFI)
available to LiveCode Builder developers.
From a brief glance, the language reference manual in DP 1 is slightly
out-of-date (for example, most of the type names are now TitleCase
rather than lowercase). Please file bugs if you find any other ways
that the documentation doesn't match the behaviour.
