Log all skips with times in Javascript format and system formatting. Alternatively, it can just track the most recent skip only. Both are off by default, but can be enabled in preferences. Note that enabling logging all skips will also enable logging the most recent skip due to how it is internally processed. These are accessible with %last_skip%, %skip_times_raw%, and %skip_times_js%.
Context menus allow for clearing the most recently logged skip or all logged skips.
Track properties will display all 3 formats (human date, system time, and js time) if focused on one track. Multiple selections will list the most recent skip between them and their total skip counts along with the individual skip types.
Add previous-skip protection: Off by default, when enabled, pressing previous will allow a 1-second grace period so accidental skips are avoided. (This may be expanded to generic protection for all actions and a customizable grace period duration if either are requested)
The above offsets the skip logging by 1 second, so if your preferences say 5 seconds, it will actually be 5 seconds after the 1-second grace period.

foo_skip changed the field so there is no longer a clash between the two now.
Updated many types and functions to use explicit, more consistent, or better built-in types.
More consistent naming, formatting and, ordering.

Version: 1.9.0

Tested 2.0 x86/x64 and 1.6 on Win10.

Feature changelog:

Add skip protection toggles for all 3 actions as well as delay duration for each. So, after pressing 'Next song', if next protection is enabled, for 1 second (the default, but customizable) into the next song any skip action will not count. This will delay the window for skips to count. That means, if the duration setting above is set to 5 seconds, the skip will count from 1-6 instead of 0-5.
Preference requires re-apply: Changed skip logging setting to be a dropdown as the previous settings would conflict. Now choose between No logging, just last skip, or log all skips.
Updated settings dialog window for formatting and grouping.
Added context menu clear option to remove all timestamps except the most recent.

Technical:

Merged context menu functions into one
Preferences utilize more built-in helper functions
Created contextmenu header
Created fields header
Utilized inline on some functions

The previous post's x64 build did not correct increment the build number.

Version 2.0.0

Tested on foobar2k 2.0 x86/x64 and 1.6 on Win10, however not extremely thoroughly.

Feature changes:

Fields:

%latest_skip% is identical to %last_skip%
%first_skip% which is identical to %oldest_skip%, both are new

Context menus:

Clear oldest timestamp
Settings have been added to preferences page:
Copy/Paste skip statistics. The "None" option does not overwrite timestamps.*
Writing/Importing Tags with skip statistics

Misc:

If tracks share the same hash after tags are changed, the records are combined rather than one being overwritten.
Fixed a couple minor bugs like the Last skip track property in the details menu displaying

Technical changes:

Replace pragma once with #ifndef statements
Created separate file for record methods and structs
setRecord uses dynamic allocation, getRecord is confirmed to not be able to
Converted some types to more platform-agnostic types
Various optimizations for execution-time and visual space
Create constants for various things for easier access and avoiding some things updating while others are not
Converted for loops to use for-ranges where possible
General re-organization of methods, variables, and definitions
Renamed enums and their values to more acceptable names
Replaced auto definitions with actual types
Debugging now launches the portable foobar2000 installations with the plugin running

New dependancies:

Tinyxml2 for XML exporting to file

I am treating this almost as a beta release because I changed a lot and did testing but I want to be very sure there are no errors before officially releasing the update automatically. Please let me know on the Discussion thread or on the issue tracker on Github of any crashes, bugs, or errors. If anything is not functioning as you would expect*, I am willing to make adjustments.
