@ExtremeFiretop,

OK, now I think I'm done. Please take a look whenever you have a chance.
Have a good night bud.

Fantastic work @Martinski4GitHub !
Super clean, no obviously typos or anything. (As always)

Reviewing and testing now; and unless something else comes up I will probably try to issue a production release sometime this evening/tonight :)

All has been tested with positive results (Just adjusted the script version manually to test the update and download functions)
Will be probably packaging it up tonight before heading to bed.

Wanted to also mention; I think the days of me staying up late (until 3 or 4AM) and working late; are mostly over now.

  1. According to my management, I'm expected back into the office at least 1 day a week starting in April; which means I should probably get my sleeping habits back in line.
  2. Since yesterday (the 1st) I've stopped my bad habits related to smoking... (Yay for my health?) But this also hasn't helped my energy levels... And attitude aren't as great as previously. I am already catching myself being almost too direct to people and being a bit... Sharp.

So just a heads up lol! I probably won't be up much later these days than 11PM my time (or 8PM your time). I also may be a bit... Grumpy for a while.

The main thing is my energy levels, I used to be able to go without sleeping, but my resting heart rate was always through the roof. I have a smart watch that keeps track and over the last year my average resting heart rate was just under 100 (usually somewhere between 90-100 bpm. lol.)

I already see a difference in that regard, the positive is that my heart rate has taken a serious dive in the right direction since I stopped smoking. Currently looking at my watch and my resting heart rate is at 62 bpm. I haven't seen it that low even while sleeping over the last year lol. Seriously my bpm would be higher while sleeping when I smoked.

But my energy levels are at an all time low and I feel it as of now at 9:30PM I am starting to power down already since I am no longer artificially jacking myself up by smoking every 20 minutes.

I hear you and fully understand. Getting a good night's sleep is very important - no "ifs, ands, or buts" about it.

That's an absolutely excellent decision, bud. I really hope you kick the smoking habit for good. I'm sure your loved ones are also happy to see you on the path to healthier habits.

But this also hasn't helped my energy levels... And attitude aren't as great as previously. I am already catching myself being almost too direct to people and being a bit... Sharp.

I'm sure the struggle to kick the addiction & dependency on the nicotine high won't be easy at first. But, hopefully, you're getting the help & support you need to handle & deal with the withdrawal symptoms as well as the side effects. I wish you the best of luck, bud, and I hope you win this battle and continue to take care of your own health.

So just a heads up lol! I probably won't be up much later these days than 11AM my time (or 8PM your time). I also may be a bit... Grumpy for a while.

I fully understand where you're coming from. As mentioned before, my new position at work this year comes with more duties & responsibilities; and as I transition from my previous role to the new one (i.e. I will be training the next person to take my role as I'm also training for my new role - learning the nitty-gritty details of the work responsibilities & commitments that are not obvious at 1st glance), my spare free time will be limited until I get fully into the "rhythm of things."

So, our online interactions & exchanges may become less frequent, but I will certainly try to stay in touch every week and work on our hobby project whenever I can.

The main thing is my energy levels, I used to be able to go without sleeping, but my resting heart rate was always through the roof. I have a smart watch that keeps track and over the last year my average resting heart rate was just under 100 (usually somewhere between 90-100 bpm. lol.)

I hear you, bud. And I certainly know what it's like to go for days without much sleep. When I started my 1st professional job as a s/w developer right out of college (after undergraduate school), I used to work 12-14 hours a day for 3 to 4 weeks at a time, and also I started going to graduate school for my MSCS (Master of Science in Computer Science). Being very young & healthy, I didn't really feel the side effects that chronic lack of sleep was having on my health and my overall mood. The effects were slow & gradual, and I didn't see them at all; until one day when my girlfriend at the time (my wife now) and I had a serious talk (this was several weeks before I was going to ask her hand in marriage), and she described to me some of the changes she was seeing in my health & my then-frequent irritable mood swings, plain as day. Long story short, I eventually learned to pace myself & balance my work life with my regular life. I still worked 9-10 hours a day some of the time but learned to stay "offline" for hours at a time in the evenings, forgetting about work, and spending more time with family & friends - particularly more so on the weekends.

I already see a difference in that regard, the positive is that my heart rate has taken a serious dive in the right direction since I stopped smoking. Currently looking at my watch and my resting heart rate is at 62 bpm. I haven't seen it that low even while sleeping over the last year lol. Seriously my bpm would be higher while sleeping when I smoked.

But my energy levels are at an all time low and I feel it as of now at 9:30PM I am starting to power down already since I am no longer artificially jacking myself up by smoking every 20 minutes.

I wish you the best of luck in your journey this year to a healthier lifestyle. Take care, bud, and have a good night,
