If you desperately need to get the client's version, you can grep that from 'fossil status,' but you'll get a UUID, which is not (by itself) sortable in a useful way, so the UUID itself does not tell you if the version is newer or older - you'll have to find the UUIDs in the timeline (or event table) and see which one came later. -- ----- stephan beal http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/ http://gplus.to/sgbeal "Freedom is sloppy.
