Information on dirty plugins is very welcome, but for such information to be useful we require at least the filename and the CRC of the dirty plugin. The CRC may be calculated using Wrye Bash or 7-zip, with other sources being unverified as correct. In the case of 7-zip, the CRC checksum for data
is the one required. In addition to the CRC, the number of records removed (the ITM count) and/or undeleted (the UDR count) are also welcome.

BOSS is written in C++ and makes use of the Alphanum, Boost, libespm, libgit2, libloadorder, PugiXML, wxWidgets and yaml-cpp libraries.
