There are now only three known release blocking issues:

Packaging: ngscopeclient packaging and (eventually) CPack and the Windows and MacOS equivalent · Issue #743 · ngscopeclient/scopehal-apps
Intro We need to make our linux build outputs CPackable so we can generate distro-specific packages that pull in external dependencies automagically. Afterwards we need to fix Windows MSYS DLLs + i...

Loi Duplomb: à quel point les néonicotinoïdes sont-ils nocifs pour la santé humaine et pour l’environnement?
DÉCRYPTAGE - La mesure la plus décriée de la loi agricole dite «Duplomb» est la réintroduction de l’acétamipride, un insecticide de la famille des néonicotinoïdes interdit en France depuis 2018 mais autorisé ailleurs en Europe jusqu’en 2033.

On the home stretch for getting ngscopeclient v0.1 out the door!
MacOS binary packaging is now mostly done (thanks Lain), although we don't have DMG's being produced in the CI flow yet.
After several hours of fighting with Windows, the Windows executable has an icon and behaves sanely wrt logging (logs to stdout if launched from a shell, but doesn't spawn a terminal if launched from the start menu).
Still need to do a few tweaks to the MSI installer as well as t…

20 Jahre unbemerkt: Programmierfehler sorgt für fehlende Lehrer

Will do a more proper demo of this later on, with a cleaner bench (right now I just want to update some screenshots for the ngscopeclient website).
But I'm throwing together a quick demo of multiple-scope sync operation using ngscopeclient and the trigger crossbar.

Tonight's quick ngscopeclient dev fix: GPU accelerating the demo scope.
It now runs quite a few times faster than before (and is faster to process subsequent filter blocks on, since the input data is now GPU resident).
Not super critical but a nice quality-of-life fix since I use the demo scope as a data source for development pretty often.

I'm trying to figure out how to make the Windows build of ngscopeclient determine if it was launched from within a terminal (in which case it should log messages to stdout) or not (in which case it should not spawn a terminal).
I've seen various sources saying to check if GetConsoleWindow() returns null, or if $PROMPT is set. Nothing seems to be working.
Anyone have better ideas? I don't want to have a terminal spawn every time ngscopeclient starts, but I also don'…
