How do fxlauncher update itself? Any plan for it?

You have to reinstall on the client for now. We plan to have fxlauncher update itself as well for 2.0, but no work is being done on that right now. Busy with other projects for the time being :)

Thank you. expect it.

If you are starting fxlauncher from a script or point to the jar file via a config file (the case in self-contained Java applications, in MyApp.cfg) you could update it by downloading the new fxlauncher version by listing it in the old version's manifest, and update the script to point to that location.
