MdPipe v0.1.1

A small but important fix for first-time setup.

Some people on company networks saw the first run fail with a "needs internet" message even though their internet was fine. The culprit was a proxy: browsers use the Windows proxy automatically, but the bundled pip didn't, so it couldn't reach PyPI to download MarkItDown. MdPipe now passes your system proxy through to it — so it should just work.

And if setup still can't finish for some other reason (firewall, VPN, antivirus…), the app now tells you the actual reason instead of just blaming the connection.

Nothing else changed. Download MdPipe.exe below and double-click it — no installer, no .NET, no Python. The first time, Windows may show a blue "Windows protected your PC" box; that's normal for an unsigned app — click More info, then Run anyway.

Works on Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit).
