app2clap (Windows only) — install and update support for jcsteh's
app2clap, a CLAP plug-in that captures audio from other applications into
REAPER (or any CLAP host). RABBIT tracks the rolling GitHub snapshots
release, picks the highest-versioned build, and installs app2clap.clap
into the per-user CLAP folder (%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Common\CLAP), so no
administrator rights are needed. It appears under the new Additional
software group. Updates replace the existing copy (backing up the old one
first); a copy installed for a different REAPER target or by hand is detected
by file presence, with the version reported as unknown until RABBIT installs
it itself. Like Surge XT, it's disabled on portable REAPER targets — the CLAP
folder lives outside any portable REAPER folder.
French (fr-FR) UI translation. RABBIT now ships with English, German, and
French out of the box; the language picker lists Français (France) and the
OS-language auto-detection on first launch covers French locales (including
regional variants such as fr-CA, which map to fr-FR).
Italian (it-IT) UI translation. The language picker now lists Italiano
(Italia), it ships in the macOS app bundle, and OS-language auto-detection on
first launch covers Italian locales (any it-*, which map to it-IT).
The wizard's primary action is now the window's default button, so pressing
Enter activates it from anywhere in the page (Next on the navigation steps,
Install on the review step) instead of only when a button already holds
focus. This matches the standard dialog convention on both macOS and Windows.
A disabled default button stays a no-op, so an invalid Target step or a
review step that can't install yet won't advance.
Changed
The wizard's package list now groups packages into an Additional
software section, separate from the main Packages list, for extras
that aren't part of REAPER itself. Surge XT moves into this new group
(and future additional software like app2clap will land there too). Each
group has its own check-all header and aggregate state; the main Packages
group is unaffected. The new group is localized in all four UI languages
and only appears when at least one additional package is available for the
selected target.
REAPER updates no longer leave an unwanted desktop icon on Windows.
REAPER's silent installer always (re)creates a desktop shortcut, with no
switch to suppress it, so updating a REAPER whose icon you'd deleted put it
back. RABBIT now snapshots the desktop shortcuts before running the
installer and, once the install is confirmed, removes a REAPER shortcut the
installer freshly created — unless this is a brand-new standard install (the
one case a new icon is wanted) or an icon was already there (never touched).
Portable installs already create no shortcut, so this is a no-op for them.
Windows only; checks both the per-user and the all-users desktop, and only
removes a REAPER*.lnk that appeared during the install.
A single unreachable upstream no longer blocks the entire update check.
Previously, when one latest-version provider failed (e.g. the SWS homepage
being down), the wizard stopped on the version-check page and the CLI's latest / plan --online commands aborted — even though every other
package could still be checked and updated. Now the check always completes
with whatever providers answered: in the wizard, each failed package's row
is disabled (unchecked, with a localized "online version check failed"
indicator) and a note with the full error appears in the review summary,
while all other packages keep their normal install/update flow. On the
CLI, latest prints resolved versions to stdout and per-package warnings
to stderr, and plan --online records each failure as a plan note. The latest --json output shape changed accordingly: it is now an object with packages and failures arrays instead of a bare array.
Fixed
A blocked plugin overwrite on macOS now explains how to fix it instead of
showing a bare "OS error 1". That error is EPERM ("operation not
permitted") and is not REAPER being open (that would be a different error
— RABBIT already handles it), so closing REAPER doesn't help; it's a macOS
permission/modification gate (App Management on Sonoma and later, an
immutable file flag, or ownership). When replacing an installed extension
such as reaper_kontrol.dylib fails with EPERM/EACCES, RABBIT now reports
that it's a permission block and points the user to grant RABBIT Full Disk
Access (or App Management) under System Settings → Privacy & Security, then
quit and relaunch — rather than leaving them with an opaque error.
Additionally, a new macOS preflight check catches this before downloading
and installing: it rehearses the write into the UserPlugins folder
(creating and deleting a probe file, and renaming each already-installed reaper_* plugin aside and back — non-destructively, the files are left
exactly as they were) and fails up front with the same guidance if the OS
denies it. macOS only; other failures and platforms are unchanged.
The "close REAPER before installing" preflight no longer fails open when
REAPER's process is running but its executable path can't be read. On
Windows that happens routinely — most often when REAPER is running elevated
while RABBIT is not (the OS denies the image-path query), or under some
antivirus — and RABBIT would detect the reaper.exe process by name but,
unable to match its (unknown) path to the install target, silently treat it
as a different REAPER and let the installer overwrite a running one. The
check is now fail-safe: a running REAPER whose path we can't read is treated
as the target and blocks the install (or warns, with the override on), so
the user is told to close REAPER instead of getting a corrupted update. A
REAPER with a readable, non-matching path is still correctly ignored.
Setup no longer fails with "stream did not contain valid UTF-8" when reapack.ini isn't UTF-8-encoded. ReaPack writes its config through the
Win32 profile-string APIs, which use the active ANSI code page (or UTF-16
when the file carries a BOM), so a repository name with a single non-ASCII
character — e.g. a CP-1252 curly apostrophe — made RABBIT's strict UTF-8
read error out and abort the run's post-install configuration step, right
after all packages had installed successfully. RABBIT now decodes such
files losslessly (UTF-8, UTF-16 LE/BE with BOM, or byte-preserving ANSI),
edits them, and writes them back in their original encoding, so existing
bytes survive untouched and ReaPack still parses the file. The same
encoding-tolerant handling now covers reaper-kb.ini during OSARA key-map
replacement, whose script names can carry ANSI bytes too. Reported in
issue #7.
