Release notes
- Windows 0.1.25 stabilizes the default candidate: AI Lite no longer moves the first choice, Space commits more predictably, and candidate identity remains stable after backspace, retyping, or paging.
- Adds opt-in tolerant pinyin for common fuzzy pairs including zh/z, ch/c, sh/s, n/l, an/ang, en/eng, and in/ing. It remains off by default, and raw input plus normal candidates stay available.
- Makes user learning gentler. A habit affects ranking only after about three confirmations, with persistent activation and deactivation hysteresis to reduce default-candidate jumps as learning weights decay.
- Unifies blind typing across Space, number selection, Enter, backspace, paging, and punctuation. In prediction-only mode, digits pass through directly to the current app.
- Fixes Rime Frost import and settings-file opening when the Windows user directory or settings path contains spaces.
- Improves TLS compatibility and staged error reporting for Rime Frost and Writer downloads while continuing to use modern Windows system security defaults.
- Retains the 0.1.24 full-key typo correction, reviewed Rime Frost import, expanded desktop lexicon limits, and asynchronous local AI Lite reranking.
- Windows 0.1.25 includes x64 and x86 TSF components. It remains an unsigned internal-test package and may trigger SmartScreen prompts.
- macOS 0.1.30 fixes intermittent no-op clicks in the native candidate panel. Mouse selections are validated against the candidate-page generation and exact position before commit.
- Duplicate-text candidates preserve the item the user actually clicked instead of incorrectly selecting the first matching label.
- Late or unverifiable callbacks record diagnostics only. They cannot commit old text, clear newly typed pinyin, or replace the current verified highlight.
- Retains full-key typo correction, tolerant pinyin, a stable Space-key default, gentle learning, Rime Frost import, local Writer, AI Lite, and tiered preferences.
- The macOS installer is Developer ID signed, Apple notarized, and stapled.
