Sorry, I should have been more specific.  I am interested in determining the current level of Apache Fop on their website, not the one installed in your system.  When you go to their website, you will see what the current level is and will be able to download it from a mirror site.  If you go to the mirror site you will see two packages for the current level.  Unless someone knows how to "ask" (programmatically) for the current level from the website, I suspect some sort of program to read the source of one of the webpages is needed and then to search it to determine what the current level is.  (Used to be called "screen scraping" back in the day.)    Gil

Thanks Rony.  I will see where the copyright statement is coming from and make the change.  I'm going to update setup.rex to download fop-2.7 and update docprep.rex to include the preprocessing of the entities file as well.

PS Anyone looking for a challenge, we need a oorexx program to determine what the current level of Apache Fop is.  If interested, please contact me either on- or off-list.  Thanks. GB

Would this be what you are after:

    G:\oorexx.tmp\gilDocs\bldoc_orx>fop-2.7\fop\fop.cmd -version
    FOP Version 2.7

It seems that the fop-2.*\fop\ directory has all fop scripts:

    G:\oorexx.tmp\gilDocs\bldoc_orx>dir fop-2.7\fop\fop*
      Volume in drive G is root_g
      Volume Serial Number is 2F1A-EC34

      Directory of G:\oorexx.tmp\gilDocs\bldoc_orx\fop-2.7\fop

    12.01.2022  12:55             7 679 fop
    12.01.2022  12:55             3 222 fop.bat
    12.01.2022  12:55             1 252 fop.cmd
    12.01.2022  12:55            10 845 fop.js
                    4 File(s)         22 998 bytes
                    0 Dir(s)   3 832 582 144 bytes free

The "-version" switch is from <https://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/1.0/running.html>. It would allow to pick any other level of fop on the left hand side link list.
