Another day, another release for 64-bit:
v9: proof that begging for contributions works
This feature packed release is thanks to regular contributor titet11, and new contributor crucio2211! Here's what's new:
• Smart dictionary updates: Preserves user's custom dictionary entries during updates, Only adds new words, prevents duplicates, and Auto-removes accents for compatibility (é→e, ñ→n). It also auto-downloads new language dictionaries. (Thanks crucio2211)
• Enhanced Pause Control (from IBMTTS): Three pause modes for better speech rhythm. Mode 0: Do not shorten, Mode 1: Shorten at end only, Mode 2: Shorten all pauses. (once again thanks to crucio2211)
• One-click setup for Windows logon/UAC screen support: now you can click a copy helper button in the eloquence settings category, meaning manual copying is no longer required. (Still from crucio2211 who is on fire)
• Ability to check for updates manually (thanks to crucio2211)
• fixes to voice pitch when switching languages (thanks to eloquence_64 regular titet11)
• correctly sets pitch for voices other than the default (thanks to titet11)
• makes sure pitch never goes out of the range allowed by eloquence (thanks titet11)
• Multiple other fixes to pitch control (thanks titet11)

@fastfinge Some weird stuff is going on in the new Eloquence update. As I updated the Community Dictionary, something I always do after installing each new Eloquence release, I noticed that most of the corrected pronunciations don't work. I checked the Root dictionary, and noticed that it's now a malformed combination of both Community and Alternative dictionaries. So this needs an investigation. Moreover, as I checked for Eloquence updates from the Settings pannel, I get the following error message:
Update manager not found. Please reinstall the add-on.

@amir @fastfinge I had that error too yesterday, I don't remember if I fixed it somehow or ignored it.

@FreakyFwoof @amir Ah-hah! It's CP1252, not ascii! So I'm converting some valid characters into spaces, here.
