Fourth pre-release of Vibe Files: document management for small CPA and tax firms over a plain client folder tree (Windows, portable).

Pre-release: in use at Kisaes LLC for its two-week live run (PHASES P13). Not yet on winget.

Install

Unzip vibe-files-0.1.3-win64.zip into a folder and run vibe-files.exe. Everything it needs is inside: pdfium (PDF viewing), TWAINDSM (scanning), Tesseract with English data (OCR). Upgrading: replace the exe and DLLs; the data folder and cabinet are kept. Setup and day-to-day operation: OPERATIONS.md in the zip, and now Help inside the app.

New in 0.1.3

  • Help
    • A Help button in the header, and F1, open 39 support articles on the screen you are on.
    • The articles are grouped by section, can be searched, and link to each other.
  • Browse
    • Drag files from Explorer (e.g. Downloads) onto a client's folder: they are copied in and cataloged, and the original stays where it was.
    • Scan straight into the folder shown. The scanner's own window (PaperStream) is the default, and every front and back page is kept.
    • In a client's Relationships, the other client's name opens its folder.
    • Doc types can be archived: they are hidden from pick lists, and documents keep them.
  • Viewer
    • The ten-key tape is now a 10-key tab beside Annotate, Stamps and Redact.
    • A pasted tape never covers another tape on the page.
    • Closing Vibe Files with annotations unsaved asks first: Save and quit, Discard and quit or Keep editing.
    • The sign-off initials must start with the first letter of your Windows login.
  • Fixes from a full QA review
    • Ten-key: S and T finish a pending × or ÷; flipping a picked amount after a total recomputes the totals; very large amounts are refused; a divide by zero leaves no stray lines.
    • A scan started in Browse that cannot be filed is kept rather than deleted.
    • Print: a failed page ends the job cleanly; overlapping page ranges print once.
    • The admin password stays locked if its file can't be read.
    • One PC's text size no longer asks every other PC to reload Intake.
    • Retention destruction also removes the copies left in each PC's Intake folder.
    • Light theme: the header buttons are visible again.
