 39  - from `ModFile(fromPath string, toPath string)` to `ModFile(file model.File)`
 40  - from `DelFile(path string)` to `DelFile(file model.File)`
 41- new plugin api:
 42  - `ExportFunc(name string, callback func(args map[string]string) (map[string]string, error))` permit to export a function, when another plugin will call it, the callback will be called with args. Only string are permitted. Can return multiple values but only strings like args.
 43  - `CanCallFunc(plugin string, name string, args map[string]string) bool` check if a plugin can call a function. If plugin is not installed/activated, has not the func or user has disable the call to it, you will get a false.
 44  - `CallFunc(plugin string, name string, args map[string]string) (map[string]string, error)` permit to call the function of another plugin. If the plugin don't exist or the plugin has not exported this function the rror will be `plugin or method not found`.
