SHTOOL-VERSION.TMP(1) GNU Portable Shell Tool SHTOOL-VERSION.TMP(1) NAME shtool version - GNU shtool maintain version information file SYNOPSIS shtool version [-l|--language lang] [-n|--name name] [-p|--prefix prefix] [-s|--set version] [-e|--edit] [-i|--increase knob] [-d|--display type] file DESCRIPTION This command displays and maintains version information in file. The version is always described with a triple <version,revision,level> and is represented by a string which always matches the regular expression ""[0-9]+\.[0-9]+[sabp.][0-9]+"". The hexadecimal format for a version "v.rtl" is "VVRRTLL" where "VV" and "RR" directly correspond to "v" and "r", "T" encodes the level type as 9, 2, 1, 0 (representing "s", "p"/".", "b", "a" in this order) and "LL" is ei- ther directly corresponding to "l" or set to 99 if level type is "s". OPTIONS The following command line options are available. -v, --verbose Print verbose information during processing. -l, --language lang Choose format of version file file. lang=""txt"", ANSI C (lang="c"), M4 (lang="m4"), Perl (lang="perl") or Python (lang="python"). Default is "txt". -n, --name name Name the program the version is maintained for. Default is "unknown". -p, --prefix prefix =item -s, --set version Set the version to version. -e, --edit Interactively enter a new version. -i, --increase knob When option ``-i'' is used, the current version in file is updated by increasing one element of the version where knob can be one of the fol- lowing: ``"v"'' for increasing the version by 1 (and resetting revision and level to 0), ``"r"'' for increasing the revision by 1 (and reset- ting level to 0) or ``"l"'' for increasing the level by 1. -d, --display type Control the display type: ""short"" for a short version display, ""long"" for a longer version display, ""hex"" for a hexadecimal dis- play of the version and ""libtool"" for a format suitable for use with GNU libtool.
