FS#69 - #version fails to raise error
Scenes starting with the incorrect syntax
version 3.7;
do not raise an error, instead they render a black screen with an empty scene warning.
#version should fail with an error when the # is missing.
For backward compatibility reasons the # is not always enforced.
OK, but if you are just trying to let it have "version 1.0"
shouldn't it notice the semicolon in "version 3.7;"
and try to complete the statement?
Did early versions support semicolon delimited comments?
Semicolon support is always available as it does not interfere with backward compatibility.
