What is new in Translate Like Me 3.2

- Rewrite: select rough notes, for example dictated, and a preset's shortcut turns them into a clear, finished message in the same language. Filler and repetitions go, self-corrections are resolved, every fact stays, and questions to the recipient stay questions.
- Up to three named presets, such as Work and Friends, each with its own shortcut and writing style, under Settings > Rewrite. Select a received message together with your notes to reply to it, and translate the result with a pair's shortcut to send it in another language.
- The model picker names the version behind your CLI's default, for example Default (Opus 5.5) instead of Default (opus), and shows that model's effort levels.
