Installation tips:

• Put plugin folder into CudaText’s py/plugins (or into ~/.config/cudatext / Application Support for non-portable installs).
• Prefer plugin versions matching your CudaText Python runtime (e.g., py3.12).
• Check plugin README for external dependencies (linters, Pandoc, SSH libs).
