The 0.4.0 Windows binary was cross-built (x86_64-pc-windows-gnu,
build-std static) and verified in the libvirt Windows 11 VM: the raw
exe launches/renders the full v0.4.0 UI and runs stably, and the
compiled installer was test-installed end-to-end (Program Files exe
sha256 1a211eb6…, Start-menu shortcut, firewall rule, launch from
the installed location) before publishing to the v0.4.0 release.
- peerspeak.iss: MyAppVersion 0.3.0 -> 0.4.0 (installer output is
peerspeak-0.4.0-setup.exe)
- INSTALL.md / README.md: update the 0.3.0 filename/version references

- INSTALL.md: bump the setup filename to 0.3.0; add an end-user section
on text chat + sending photos/files (inline images, file chips,
Save/Download, 25 MB cap, session-only); note that both ends must run
the same version under "won't connect".
- README.md: add a Version compatibility section (installer version
tracks Cargo; a 0.x MINOR bump is a breaking wire change so everyone
must reinstall; 0.3.0 can't talk to 0.2.x).

Match the Cargo 0.3.0 release (chat file sharing + per-peer gate). The
installer payload is unchanged (single self-contained peerspeak.exe +
icon); only the version string / output filename move to 0.3.0.

A non-technical walkthrough to send alongside the installer: covers the
SmartScreen "unknown publisher" warning, the firewall/desktop-shortcut
checkboxes, and joining/creating a call via room tickets. Uses the actual UI
labels (Join Room / Create New Room / Copy Ticket / Leave Room).

Package PeerSpeak for Windows as a single self-contained binary. The GUI
icon, notification chimes, and avatar presets are already embedded via
include_bytes!, and the cross-compiled .exe is statically linked (no extra
DLLs), so the installer payload is just peerspeak.exe plus an .ico.
- src/main.rs: set windows_subsystem = "windows" for release builds so the
GUI launches without a stray console window (debug keeps the console for
stderr/panics).
- packaging/windows/: Inno Setup script (peerspeak.iss), multi-resolution
app icon (peerspeak.ico), and a build README. The installer drops a
Start-menu/desktop shortcut, optionally adds a Windows Firewall allow-rule
(iroh UDP hole-punching), and provides an uninstaller.
- win-cross-build.sh: promote the cross-build helper from a throwaway to the
documented installer build step; .gitignore the staged exe + compiled
setup.exe build artifacts.
Built with Inno Setup 6.7.1 under Wine; binary is unsigned (SmartScreen will
warn until code-signed).
