- Split out WM_init_splash_on_startup(..) which performs startup checks.
- WM_init_splash(..) now shows the splash (ignoring preferences).
- Avoid calling BLI_exists on an empty string (in some cases).
The goal is to solve confusion of the "All rights reserved" for licensing
code under an open-source license.
The phrase "All rights reserved" comes from a historical convention that
required this phrase for the copyright protection to apply. This convention
is no longer relevant.
However, even though the phrase has no meaning in establishing the copyright
it has not lost meaning in terms of licensing.
This change makes it so code under the Blender Foundation copyright does
not use "all rights reserved". This is also how the GPL license itself
states how to apply it to the source code:
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software ...
This change does not change copyright notice in cases when the copyright
is dual (BF and an author), or just an author of the code. It also does
mot change copyright which is inherited from NaN Holding BV as it needs
some further investigation about what is the proper way to handle it.
- Both success & ok were used for file reading, use the clearer name.
- Paths were single/double quoted, use double quotes for print/reports.
- Rename `path` to `filepath` / `dirpath`.
Also minor changes in comments:
- Reference BLENDER_HISTORY_FILE instead of the literal file-name
(simplifies looking up usage).
- Use usernames in tags, as noted in code-style.
