V4MD 2.0.5 getDatabaseVersion crashes

[Chuck Neal]

Working on Windows for now but I may end up porting this to Mac as well.

Is there any way to keep the pointer to the old syntax with 2.1?  The 
one thing that drives me nuts between versions is when command names 
change and are not backwards compatible. :)

As for the version, any possibility of a helper script to more easily 
convert that? My user's may not want to have to run a calculator to 
determine if I need to update their database. ;)
