✍️ What's new — better Chinese punctuation (local mode)

Local transcripts now come out punctuated:

  • Prompt-guided punctuation — a default WHISPER_PROMPT makes whisper.cpp emit punctuation (run-on Chinese speech was coming out with none).
  • Full-width normalization — half-width punctuation next to Chinese is converted to full-width 「,。!?」 via WHISPER_FULLWIDTH_PUNCT (on by default).

Both are configurable in .env — set WHISPER_PROMPT= (empty) or WHISPER_FULLWIDTH_PUNCT=false to opt out.

Upgrade an existing install

cd whisper-input-next-mac-kit && git pull && ./install.sh

The patcher is idempotent and leaves your .env untouched (code defaults provide punctuation).
