- Actually, its not a bug. What is happening is that the version command gives
- the version number of the library that's currently in memory. If you want to
- check the version of a file/library on disk, you need to append the "file"
- command to it. i.e.
-
- version df0:asl.library file
-
- That will give the version number of the file on disk.
