New version is out, version 1.8.0. Besides some fixes, there are also some new functions.

Major new functions:
- Possibility to switch off in between pop-ups about the actual fase to be executed in the check dialogues procedure
- Option to handle the additional quotes for quotation spanning multiple paragraphs

Keeping in mind the discussions in this and another thread, let me explain a little more about the last one. It is an option, so you must enable it for it to work.

How does it work? Imagine we have the following (I use double quotes, but it works the same for single quotes and guillemets):
Code:
“Talk talk talk.
That is all you do,” she said.
For this situation, it works as before whether the option is on or off. A popup will be displayed about the paragraph mark and a temporary paragraph tag could be inserted.

Code:
“Talk talk talk.
“That is all you do,” she said.
In this situation, the same popup will be displayed. With the option off there will be an additional popup after the popup for the paragraph with an error because of the second quote. With the option on, other behavior will be present. If a paragraph tag is inserted, the quote on the next line will also be tagged for the duration of the procedure. After the procedure, the quote will be restored.

This will also work if the next paragraph is not started with opening quotation marks, but closing (thanks for the example Jellby!).

This should make the 'dialogue procedure' a lot more usable for languages with that type of quotation style.
