Problem with what command

Harikrishna Parlapalli_2 — Tue, 27 May 2003 04:28:04 GMT

Hi,

I'm not getting the version of the binary if I use the what command.

The output of what is as follows:
$Revision: 92453-07 linker linker crt0.o B.11.33 020605 $
HP92453-02A.11.00 HP-UX SYMBOLIC DEBUGGER (END.O ILP32) $Revision: 75.04 $
Version LabelNameNotSpecified
Version LabelNameNotSpecified
Version LabelNameNotSpecified
FLEXlm 6.0f (liblmgr.a), Copyright (C) 1988-1998 Globetrotter Software, Inc.

How this can be corrected ?

well..I can't see anything wrong with your WHAT command....Or may I'm too sleepy..

Below are from www.dictionary.com

revision :
A release of a piece of software which is not
a major release or a bugfix, but only introduces small
changes or new features.

Hi,
sometimes the programmer did not put in the information you like to have. If you are the programmer of the binary, maybe I can not help. You can get more info about the binary whenn you are using the string command piped on whatever (more, grep, pg, ...)
e.g. strings | grep -i revision

Hope it helps a little bit.
