When wwill we see an XnView MP portable instead of the non-unicode XnView Classic?

As the subject, when will we see XnView MP as portableapps release instead of the non-unicode classic version? Most everyone by now is running some form of Unicode compliant OS so the proliferation of filenames containing Unicode characters is rising. I've already had numerous occasions where the classic version was unable to properly detect images and videos because their names consisted/contained Unicode characters.

Now that XnView MP has reached 1.0 ...

... it would be great to have it added, just like it has been done with XnView Classic before.

From its own web site: "XnView MP: the supercharged XnView classic successor"
MP offers a quite a few enhancements compared to the classic XnView. For me, to display SVG without the need of a proprietary plug-in is the killer criterion.

Today

How about now? https://portableapps.com/news/2022-08-16--xnview-mp-portable-1.01-released

I didn't realize it had hit 1.0, which is what I was waiting on.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

Thanks a lot!

This is great news! Thank you for the whole suite and especially your tenacity in this particular case
(been following this thread for several years and I know you've been at it for quite some time)

On vacation with the family now , but once I'm back I'll give a thorough vetting. Looking forward to that!

It seems they forgot to update the home page.

Does anyone know why the MP was so bigger than the classic? Over 10 times?
