Information about Auto Updating

The file ../plugins/ChatCalculator/config.yml contains an option to disable this, as well as in-game via chatting chatcalc update false

When ChatCalculator updates, it connects to BukkitDev's ServerMods API, and downloads the new version. If auto-updating is enabled, ChatCalculator will tell operators that an update is available when they log in. They can then chat chatcalc update, which will start the download. After it is downloaded, you will need to reload or restart the server for the changes to take effect.
