I filed an issue for this very thing in Wget, and someone beat me to implementing it (it'll be there in Wget 1.12). I would definitely support this. Vim also has a ":version" command that gives this info. It wouldn't be terrible to have Screen's ":version" do this as well. > Also, since lua scripting is in the wings.... what about making the > connection to lua "clean" so one could add tcl if they like? > Somebody will like that :) It's worth looking into, at the very least. Vim, of course, has Perl and Python support (and perhaps others). I'm more familiar with Python than Lua, myself. And, to be perverse, I might find a Haskell binding to be useful. - -- Micah J.
