No, I have my own script folder.

I had made an update (1.3 => 1.4) incl. CHDK/MODULES and CHDK/LUALIB. The Script menu displays '--NO SCRIPT--' and the warning message.

I like that you can display something like this:

@chdk_version 1.4 == 1.4.0.0

But, is there something like this:

@chdk_version == null

So it doesn't display any warning message at all.
I find the warning message annoying. Sorry

However, I do know it is useful when you share scripts with others... for legacy code... and so on.

For my own scripts I don't think I need any warning message. That extra space on the screen is nice for displaying an extra @param or text.
If it can't be done, please don't worry, I understand

You should not see a warning if the version is compatible with the current version. So with 1.4, you won't see a warning if you set 1.4 or 1.3. If in the future 1.5 is backwards compatible, you won't see a warning there either.

Don't forget what the H stands for.

Just add '@chdk_version 1.3' to your scripts and the warning (in orange text) will go away. If you plan on using the new 1.4 features then add '@chdk_version 1.4'. The version check will be back-ported to the 1.3 branch soon so you will be notified if you try and use a 1.4 script.

It's a reminder to add this line to your scripts - I know it's a bit tedious if you have a lot of scripts; but it was felt it was a good feature for future compatibility and enhancement.
