My first example "6.7.11" was pure fun because your 'old'
script finds of course the substring "6.7.1".
But know we are even ready for "8.111.0"!

Thanks again for this useful detail about the version of the
building engine of standalones. This works for all available
platforms, not only for Windows.

In case of a HTML5 standalone we have to use
"path/to/generated/*.html.mem"
instead of "path/to/standalone.exe".
