That would be great.

Here you go, https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibr...c3ba2c20601e41

I tested it with a couple of European languages with Gemini seems to work OK, cant tell as I dont really understand the languages. It was awful with Hindi mixed up English and Hindi text and the link offsets were all wrong.

Released 8.12.100. The windows code signing certificate expired so I had to get a new one, I'd appreciate if Windows users could download and check that things work. It will also give Microsofts scan code time to get used to the new certificate before I make a general release with it. Thanks.

Oops looks like the upload failed will redo in an hour or so.

kovidgoyal · 10-10-2025, 02:18 AM

Now uploaded.

Karellen · 10-10-2025, 02:51 AM

Yep, got it.

DNSB · 10-10-2025, 03:08 AM

The 8.12.100 MSI download went okay. I got the Windows Protected Your PC popup when I tried the install so probably a few more people need to download and install.

kovidgoyal · 10-10-2025, 04:17 AM

Yeah I am hoping windows gets used to the new cert by the time I make the next general release or people will get unnecessarily freaked by windows' security popups.

BetterRed · 10-10-2025, 04:55 AM

Install OK here, just usual Blue UAC R U Sure

Built in Open with noticeably faster, maybe even faster than Windows explorer Open with, certainly no slower.

Tested Word, Honeyview, VLC, CSVFileView, Bababolka and Sigil 2.5.0/Qt 6.8.2. Apart from Sigil the others are latest release

Karellen · 10-10-2025, 05:30 AM

I didn't get any UAC warning.

BetterRed · 10-10-2025, 05:40 AM

Probably because you disabled it. I like it because it gives me pause: Do I really want to do this right how?

Karellen · 10-10-2025, 05:46 AM

Hmm, I had it set too low. Wonder when I did that.
