Kestrel v0.1.4

Fixes

  • Opens files with awkward names. Filenames containing characters like ; or , (and very
    long or network/UNC paths) no longer fail with a "not found" error — Kestrel now hands GDAL an
    extended-length path that it reads literally.
  • No more crash on some GeoPackages. Inspection now runs on the main thread, removing a
    background-thread GDAL/GEOS hazard that could crash line/polygon GeoPackages in the packaged app.

New

  • Open with / drag-onto-exe. Pass a file on the command line (or set up a file association)
    and Kestrel opens it on launch.

Download (Windows 64-bit, no Python required)

  • KestrelSetup.exe - installer (recommended). Per-user, no admin; Start-Menu shortcut + uninstaller.
  • Kestrel-windows.zip - portable. Unzip and run Kestrel\Kestrel.exe.

Unsigned, so Windows SmartScreen may warn on first launch; choose More info then Run anyway.
