v.1.0.3

Release v1.0.3

Summary

This release fixes an issue where the pending status message (indicating a checksum calculation was in progress) was not displayed before the hash computation began. Additionally, the read buffer size has been optimized to 1MB to improve performance when handling large files like .ISO images.

Changes

• Pending status now displays before computation
  The progress message now appears immediately when the process starts, improving user transparency.
  Commit f5a5202

• Faster processing for large files
  Buffer size increased to 1MB, reducing I/O overhead and speeding up hash generation for sizable inputs.
  Commit 5489cfc
