My plugin automatically determines if there is a newer version out on the
server during certain operations (the plugin is tightly tied to a server
process). However, I would really like to have the plugin be capable of
automatically updating itself with the latest version upon appropriate
user notification. Is there a way to do this? I've tinkered around with
the the stop() and update() functions but these are not working well. My
guess is that this is related to the fact that the plugin is obviously
still running (I am, after all, executing code within the plugin). I've
heard rumors that there is an easy way to trigger the update of a specific
plugin, but I haven't found the solution yet. No doubt it is staring me
straight in the face!

If you have any suggestions, or believe that this post is located in the
wrong group, please respond.

Regards.
