Description

Hi!
Could you please add a Win32 (x86) build to your 0.0.1 release?

I've been struggling to find a self-contained elevated command executor for Windows that pipes output correctly, and this looks like it does this, but you only have x86_64.

Edit: I've since installed Go and built my own, with go build -ldflags="-s -w" and then ran it through upx --brute sudo so that it's only 582kb, but it would still be nice for official builds to be available for others! 👍

Research direction

No source file or test is named. Start by inspecting how the 0.0.1 x86_64 release artifact is produced and compare it with Go's Windows 386 target. Done means an official self-contained Win32/x86 executable is included in the release and its output-piping behavior is verified.
