+--------------------
+1. How to use?
+--------------------
+
+Import settings from Autoexec_PackUpdater.ini to profile and for server (file1.ini) are in Tamplates folder. Probably full langpack in this folder too.
+
+1. Add in your langpack_*.txt strings needed for plugin.
+
+Variables in Autoexec_PackUpdater.ini:
+
+ FileCount - number of files for witch needs to check updates. Plugin supports checking for several files, but most time is only one (Pack setup file)
+
+ AutoUpdate - Check updates automatically with Miranda startup. configured in Events->Pack updates
+
+ File_VersionURL - URL where saved file with infirmation about versions of all files (file1.ini)
+
+[File_x_] (where x - serial number file, begining from 1)
+
+ CurrentVersion - sets 1.0.0 (or another what you wants) and don't change any more
+
+ LastVersion - the same
+
+
+3. Create file with infirmation about versions (file1.ini). One for all checked files
+
+
+Options of file1.ini:
+
+Handle [FileInfo_õ], where õ - serial number file, begining from 1 (must be equal with number in profile)
+
+
+FileVersion - Current file version (Version of new pack file)
+
+Message - Description that user see when plugin found new version
+
+DownloadURL - URL of Update file
+
+DiskFileName - Name of file saved on user computer.
+
+FileType - type of file. Defines final destination of file. (1 - pack, 2 - plugin (will be installed into Plugins), 3 - icon (will be installed into Icons), 4 - files in miranda root (e.g. langpack, dbtool))
+
+Descr - description witch shows in update list.
+
+InfoURL - Optional. If it writed, message box that user see have button "See information", click on it open this URL.
+
+AdvFolder - Optional. If it writed, set subfolder in folder defined FileType.
+
+Force - Optional. If it writed, the file will be offered for renewal, even if you do not installed.
+
+4. Download file with infirmation and updates on server.
+
+
+--------------------
+2. How it works?
+--------------------
+
+Plugin has two modes: silent and normal. silent is used when checking for updates on startup, normal - click menu item.
+First, plugin downloads file version information and compares the "local" (File_x_CurrentVersion from profile) version with the "remote"
+(FileVersion). If they differ, that:
+a). When you work in silent mode plugin checks the value LastVersion and if it differs from the FileVersion, shows the message about the update.
+if not - there are no messages.
+b). When working in normal mode plugin displays a message in any case.
+If a user downloaded the update, but decided it just did not install, update is still considered to be established.
