check the sections:

- Prerequisite
- Updating after CLI changes

works for me at like a charm

No, there’s no changes in the VS plugin. While I could (should?) have the plugin itself do the updating of the CLI, I decided to go simple. This should by nature be very stable software that should not be needing any updates every month …

Ah, that probably I am confused. The version of plugin **0.4.0** doesn’t relate to version of **gotmplfmt** 0.5.0.

I got installed 0.5.0 through brew, but that 0.4.0 plugin to 0.5.0 gotmplfmt confused me
