GetVersion

Yet another version commandline tool.


Shell/CLI arguments:
FILE/A,[N=NAME/S,V=VER=VERSION/S,D=DATE/S],RES=RESIDENT/S,EXTVER/S,NC=NOCOMMENT

 FILE/A         : filename to get version (mandatory)
 N=NAME/S       : prints name of version string
 V=VER=VERSION/S: prints version.revision of version string
 D=DATE/S       : prints date of version string
 RES=RESIDENT/S : try to find resident version of FILE
 EXTVER/S       : try to find $EXTVER: version string
 NC=NOCOMMENT/S : don't print comment string (if available)
NOTE1: without any switch it prints full version string.
NOTE2: using 'N D' combination not supported.
NOTE3: I added a couple of workarounds for some programs/libs/... that
have incorrect '$VER: name ver.rev (date) [misc]' string. In case you
find a faulty one contact me so I can try to workaround (if it's worth).



Examples:
#GetVersion libs:asl.library 
asl.library 53.49 (17.9.2013)
#GetVersion libs:asl.library NAME VER
asl.library 53.49
#GetVersion exec.library RES
exec 53.89 (28.11.2016)
#GetVersion ExtraVersion EXTVER
ExtraVersion 1.0b (26.02.2016)
This release is a beta version.
