Re: Plug-in update
I don't know if there's an 'official' way to deal with this. However when your plugin loads, your Action class object is run. At that time, I add a menu items to the "Tools" menu.

public class Action extends PluginAction
{
    public Action()
    {
        putPropertyValue(Property.NAME, "ToWebPlugin...");
        putPropertyValue(Property.MENU, "Tools");
        setEnabled(true);
    }
    ... stuff deleted ...
}

You could inspect something over the internet (using http) and inform the user that a new version is available. And a brief explanation about how to install it.
