2008/03/12- version 1.4 by Freeman "Fabrizio"
--
-Fixed a bug so orders which are flagged as red i.e. not updated
still show as updated when you view the order they have had their status changed and the customer emailed,
when in reality it shouldn't have changed anything or sent emails
(thanks to Stubbsy for letting me know!)
-Cleaned up and commented the code
-Added a function to check if order exist and avoid "updating" status of inexistent orders

(thanks to Stubbsy for letting me know...Hell!)
-Cleaned up and commented the code

Added small new features/fix:

-Fixed status change checkbox under order edit page (was not showing when notified to the customer..so it always had the red cross on the customer notified page)

All creds to the original Author

There are many contribs out there to allow quicker updating of order statuses. Yet, there is none that allow you to just enter a list of order numbers, the status you want them to be, and update them all in a single click. This is what the update-o-matic does.

I'd call this a bare-bones package, just the main file itself, no multilanguage, no menu links... I just hope someone more talented can polish it up :)

By the way this works WONDERS if you use a barcode on your invoices/packing slips and use a barcode scanner to input the order numbers.

A lot of this file based on Jared Call's Customer Comments contrib, many thanks!
