V4MD - going from v1 to v2

[Scott Runkel]

Thanks, Ruslan. I realize now that although I encapsulated some of my Valentina 
commands in an object, so the "real" command is only used once (such as creating 
a cursor), I didn't do it with all of them as I should have. So maybe now is the 
time for me to update my code that way, to make it more flexible for future 
changes.
