Pelmet 0.2.1

Fixes:

  • Rapid hover out-and-in could leave the bar shut under a hovering pointer
    until it left and re-entered — the hover reveal now re-arms when a conceal
    lands with the pointer already back in the band.

  • Smooth hide/reveal fades were silently disabled without Screen Recording
    access (the rename dropped the old grant, and the app never asked). Pelmet
    now asks once, the first time a fade actually needs it. Granting takes
    effect after a relaunch — and it stays optional: without it, icons appear
    and disappear without the fade.

  • Exits start instantly: the hide cover is now pre-captured while the bar
    sits revealed (mirroring the reveal side), instead of paying an ~70ms
    screen capture before every conceal could begin.

Smooths the Nook → Pelmet update for existing users:

  • The app now renames its own bundle from Nook.app to Pelmet.app on first
    launch, before asking for any permission — updating in place no longer
    leaves a mis-named app, and the Accessibility grant attaches cleanly.
  • Onboarding now warns updaters about the leftover "Nook" row in System
    Settings → Accessibility: it belongs to the old identity and no longer
    works. Remove it with −, then grant the new Pelmet entry.
  • The Accessibility prompt re-fires for migrated installs so the correct
    Pelmet row is always registered.

If you already updated to 0.2.0 and Pelmet isn't hiding anything: remove the
old Nook row from System Settings → Accessibility, grant the Pelmet entry,
and relaunch the app.
