to the contrary. most of the time build dates have little meaning, and turn out to create confusion. Pd-0.38-3 should by all means behave the same, regardless of whether it was compiled tonight, or 10 years ago. apart from that: Pd already displays that information, both with the "-version" and the "-verbose" flags (but in both cases, only on stdout). > > somewhere and possible even the version (shortened commit hash)? > that's much more meaningful, but also much harder to get for all supported platforms. mdas IOhannes
