Just another update in the developer list such that readers know: in <https://sourceforge.net/p/oorexx/feature-requests/815/> Erich has pointed to his RFE <https://sourceforge.net/p/oorexx/feature-requests/689/> (which I was not aware of anymore) which brought the revision information into the version string.

For some reasons I got the impression from comments over time that an official release should not carry any specific revision information in the package names and "rexx[c] -v" which caused me to check out the possibility to do that and which yielded RFE:#815 and the patch.

As personally I am fine with keeping the revision information in the relased package names and "rexx[c] -v" I will not proceed with RFE #815 any further.

will always give you the revision that was in place when the package got 
created.

Not showing the revision number on "rexx -v" is meant to indicate that it is an official release version and not an interim build.



In that case, given the availability of .rexxinfo~revision will always be supported, I would be fine with removing the precise version from "rexx -v".

I appreciate you explaining.

I am thankful,
