Getting the current cmucl version via command line option
Describe the feature
It would be useful if we could say lisp -version
to have cmucl print out the version (as obtained from (lisp-implementation-version)
) and exit.
Since many programs use --version
, we should support that too.
This is useful in scripts that want to know the version of cmucl without having to write a bunch of code to do it.
Is there a prototype?
No, but it should be relatively easy to add a defswitch
for this.
