Updates:

First attempt at using Github Actions to package a release including making a Windows executable that works with symlinks as used by winget
Add column headers for --show-lang and --show-ext output
Remove -> separator in --show-ext output
Remove leading blank space for --fmt output written to STDOUT
New switch --files-from as a synonym for --vcs
New switch --ksep/--thousands-delimiter to show a separator (default is a comma) between thousands in output counts
Change sequence of Python language filters so that docstrings are handled before #
Jenkinsfile now recognized as Groovy

New switch --percent as a shortcut to `--by-percent t' to show percentage of totals in blank, comment, code columns

Bug fixes:

Remove file irregular"file2.md from the test suite as filenames with embedded double quotes are illegal in Windows and cause git pull problems (among other issues). This file is created dynamically during testing on non-Windows operating systems.
On Windows use zip format instead of tar for the 'git archive' command used when running with --git --diff
Remove duplicate "percent" entry in options handling
Support --exclude-lang in --diff mode
Fix --exclude-lang option when used in diff mode and when all files are additions or deletions
On Windows, remove temporary SCALAR(0x..) files created when using --fmt
Handle --by-file for JSON and YAML outputs with single and double quotes in file names

Update 2025-06-29: updated Windows executable to work better with Microsoft winget package manager
