My windows code sign has expired since moving to Canada. I'll likely try to
get a new one before I release a new version of CaveWhere. Windows code
sign is about $200/3 years. I'm happy to sign the survex builds but they'll
be under my name. I can also code sign the mac builds too. The newer macOS
doesn't allow users to run unsigned software.

I recently switched back to macOS after 4 years of learning windows. I can
pull out my older windows computer and try to figure out the windows issue.
You all cross-compile the windows builds on linux, right?
