Synopsis:
$info(c|o|s|v|r|i)
Technical:
This function returns information about how the client was compiled.
Practical:
This function is used to fetch information stored in the client at compile time. It can be used to find out who compiled it, and when; what #define options were enabled; and to get the checksums of the binary.
Returns:
requested information
Options:
c user@machine that compiled client, and time of compilation i value of commit_id (incremented every time a change is made to epic's source). m if the new math parser is being used, 1, if the old math parser, 0 o compile-time options used r the "silly name" (or, "ridiculous name") for this release of epic. s binary checksums v client version, in the form "class major minor" w local variables (always 1)
Examples:
$info(c) might return "Compiled by root@foobar on Fri Jan 3 1997 at 01:56:24 CST" $info(i) might return "202" $info(m) might return "0" $info(o) might return "2aefgknvzc" $info(r) might return "Perspicacious" $info(s) might return "1138232081 989 info.c.sh" $info(v) might return "epic4 1 0" $info(w) will return "1"
