Description

  • Add the dist command to the Windows refine.bat file just like we have in the Linux refine shell script.
    • We might use the command mvn -Drevision=<version> package -P windows in the dist command?
  • Allow it to take a version parameter as it does in the Linux refine shell script.
  • #7088
  • Ensure that upon starting OpenRefine that on the main Project page, that same version number is shown in the lower left About area.

Research direction

Compare the Windows refine.bat file with the Linux refine shell script, focusing on the existing dist command and version parameter behavior. Check the proposed Maven command and the main Project page's lower-left About area; done means Windows supports dist with a version and displays that same version when OpenRefine starts.
