Input file format
</H2>
None.
<p>
<H2>
Output file format
</H2>
<p>
<b>embossversion</b> writes just the version number followed by a
newline character to end the line.
<p>
The output is written to the screen by default, but can be written to a
named file by using the '-outfile' option.
<p>
<p>
The version number is in three parts, separated by '.'s.
<br>
The first number is the major version number - this only changes when substantial changes have been made to the look-and-feel of EMBOSS.
<br>
The second number is the minor version number - this is incremented whenever a version is released.
<br>
The third number is usually '0' but if a minor bug fix has been released that does not warrant a minor version number, this will be incremented.
<H2>
Data files
</H2>
None.
<H2>
Notes
</H2>
<p><b>embossversion</b> might be called by scripts in automated systems requiring versioning information, or in user-support as a convenient way to ascertain the version of an EMBOSS installation being used remotely.</p>
<H2>

None.
<H2>
Warnings
</H2>
None.
<H2>
Diagnostic Error Messages
</H2>
None.
<H2>
Exit status
</H2>
It always exits with status 0.

Known bugs
