Automatic updates

[jiazu]

Right now the process of upgrading is like this:

• start up PT4
• get an announcement for an updated version
• click the link
• visit the website
• download the upgrade
• close pokertracker that's opened in the background
• install the update

With an automatic upgrade, the process would be:

• start up PT4
• get an announcement for an updated version
• click update
• start the updated PT4

True. One can't even close the "announcement" after downloading the new version; the only option is to click "ok", open PT4, and then close it since the upgrade will not install with PT4 running...

In PT3 clicking the link closed the announcement and PT3 - I'll remind the developers that this functionality is still lacking in PT4.

Do we really need automatic updates tho? While still in beta - sure yes, but once a final is up i would prefer if auto updates were disabled or at least made optional.

The update will remain optional. You are always free to ignore the update notification, although we don't recommend that (especially for beta versions).
