3.8.2 Version string

A version string is part of the header of a library.

Syntax:
version = string_constant;
Purpose:
Defines the version number of a library. It is displayed when the library is loaded.
Example:
version="$Id: sample.lib 13320 2010-09-29 09:31:38Z someone $";
Note:
It is common practice to simply define the version string to be "$Id:$" and let a version control system expand it.
