/*
This plugin is currently experimental and working only with exe version.
Its capability is to offer automatic restart when an update is available in the form of hfs.exe-new file.

Tip: In my case I'm uploading "hfs.exe-new" over ftp, and it's a bit slow, so to avoid the plugin to catch
    an unfinished file, I do the upload using a temporary name, and only when it's done I rename it to "hfs.exe-new".
