Thanks for the response, Henry!
Looks like this might finally be the thing that pushes me over the edge
in favor of using rake to build my app. Every time I release a new
version, I release it in a few different flavors, each with slight
modifications. Using rake and the OpenLaszlo gem, I should be able to
write the build time to an XML file that is included in the build, correct?

Hmm, that's a good idea, I don't think the compiler bakes the
date that the app was compiled into the app anyplace. It does bake
in the information on the version of LPS that is running though:
Debug.versionInfo ()
will return a string like this
Debug.versionInfo
lzx> Debug.versionInfo
()

I'm currently dealing with the unpleasant headache of tracking
various
installations of different versions of my SOLO app. I've added
functionality to display the version number of the app, but
I'd also
like to include a build number. In fact, I'd prefer to just
use the
time at which the app was built if that's possible.
How could I go about doing this? Some sort of preprocessing
directive?
Thanks in advance! :)
