1. "latest" is the latest stable version, but may require beta version of mb, "yyyy-mm-dd" may be (or may not exit at all) just some stable plugin versions for some specific mb (probably only stable) versions. "beta" is just some beta version of plugin. only "latest" will
definitely exist.
2. it's simply the date of plugin version. it's much simpler for me to mark plugin versions by release date (not always simpler, but in most cases).
3. yes, but it's rare cases, when plugin is significantly updated, but not sufficiently tested.
4. yes
5. i've decided to put in downloadable zip only 2 files: readme.txt and mb_TagTools.zip. the latter will be structured as now. presets and ru folders will be inside mb_TagTools.zip as it is now.
6. only the name of the downloadable zip may be somehow changed, if the situation requires this.

actually, all this doesn't relate to translation. i've found out that even advanced users don't realize how to correctly install/update plugin and asr presets. i've tried to ask active plugin users, what "distribution model" (and hence, installation/updating process) they suppose to be more clear and easy. it's not the question of translation.
----------
about translation of readme. here is the latest readme version, but it's still not final. it would be helpful if you can suggest some corrections of english text.

PLUGIN INSTALLATION
Open MusicBee menu: Edit> Edit Preferences> Plugins. Click button "Add Plugin...", browse to the folder where file "Additional-Tagging-Tools-Plugin.zip" is located and open this file. Close preferences. Open MusicBee menu: Tools> Additional Tagging & Reporting Tools> Advanced Search & Replace. Click button "Install All", browse to the folder where file "Additional-Tagging-Tools-Plugin.zip" is located and open subfolder "ASR Presets" to load all predefined presets. To configure plugin, open MusicBee menu: Edit> Edit Preferences> Plugins. Click button "Configure" under "additional tagging & reporting tools" header.
PLUGIN UPDATING
Open MusicBee menu: Edit> Edit Preferences> Plugins. Click button "Disable" under "additional tagging & reporting tools" header. Restart MusicBee. Open MusicBee menu: Edit> Edit Preferences> Plugins. Click button "Add Plugin...", browse to the folder where updated file "Additional-Tagging-Tools-Plugin.zip" is located and open this file. Close preferences.
Updating ASR presets:
Open MusicBee menu: Tools> Additional Tagging & Reporting Tools> Advanced Search & Replace. Click button "Install All" to install all predefined presets, updating already installed predefined presets to the latest version, or click button "Install New" to (re)install predefined presets, created or updated by developer since last time you installed/updated them. If you have deleted some predefined presets, then they won't be reinstalled by "Install New" action. Predefined presets can't be edited for real, but you can "customize" them, i.e., adjust some available for changing options. Both installation actions will ask you if you want to update customized predefined presets (if any) and lose your adjustments or to skip updated by developer, but customized by you presets.
PLUGIN UNINSTALLATION
Open MusicBee menu: Edit> Edit Preferences> Plugins. Click button "Uninstall" under "additional tagging & reporting tools" header. MusicBee will delete all automatically created files (e.g., settings), but you will need to close MusicBee and manually delete file "mb_TagTools.dll" and and subfolder "ru" from "Plugins" folder. "Plugins" folder is located in MusicBee application folder if you are using portable MusicBee and in folder "%AppData%\MusicBee" if you are using installer version of MusicBee.
Unfortunately, any plugin can't be uninstalled from Store version of MusicBee at the moment.
----------------
new plugin version. 6 new functions to compare integer or fractional numbers are added:
$eq(num1,num2): determines if num1 is
equal to num2, e.g. $eq(1.0,1) returns "T"
$ne(num1,num2): determines if num1 is
not
equal to num2
$gt(num1,num2): determines if num1 is
greater
than num2
$lt(num1,num2): determines if num1 is
less
than num2
$ge(num1,num2): determines if num1 is
greater than or
equal to num2
$le(num1,num2): determines if num1 is
less than or
equal to num2

"update all"/"update new" buttons are renamed to "install all"/"install new". tooltips for these buttons (and some other buttons) are also changed. process of updating (i.e. reinstalling) of predefined presets is improved, some customization options (e.g. "auto-apply preset only if track belongs to playlist") of predefined presets are correctly and silently transferred to updated presets, if other customization options were adjusted by user (but only adjusted
after updating plugin to this version), then plugin will ask user if he wants to keep current customized presets or to update customized presets anyway, losing these customizations, etc.
anyway, user can always copy any predefined preset to preserve it in case of any predefined preset reinstallation.
-
buttons ⌘ are removed from ASR and ALR.
-
layout of ASR window is slightly changed. wording of some labels/buttons is changed.
-
many syntax errors are corrected in ASR presets, but you must "install all" presets to update them, not "install new". or just copy 'asr presets' folder from plugin zip to 'mb appdata' folder, overwriting all files.
