        // and the user should be warned. Therefore, both directories must
        // contain a file named "version" which contains an integer version
        // number. The user directory is returned only if the versions are
        // equal, otherwise the host directory is returned. In addition, a
        // warning is shown to the user if the user directory exists and if its
        // version differs or cannot be read. The warning is made through a
        // dialog if an emScreen can be found in the given context (or higher),
        // otherwise the warning is reported through emWarning. If the version
        // file of the host directory cannot be read, emFatalError is called. It
        // is okay to call this function multiple times in a program run,
        // because it remembers each shown warning for not showing it again, as
        // long as the root context lives.
