# Checking The Version
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
RETRO releases add and change things. You can use the `Version`
|
||
|
|
variable to determine the version in use and react accordingly.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
@Version #201906 eq? [ 'Needs_2019.6! s:put nl bye ] if
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This can be also be used to conditionally load compatibility files:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
(If_newer_than_2016.6,_load_aliases_for_renamed_words)
|
||
|
|
@Version #201906 gt? [ 'Renamed_2019.6.forth include ] if
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Version Number Format
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The version is a six digit number encoding the year and month of
|
||
|
|
the release. So:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
201901 is 2019.1
|
||
|
|
201906 is 2019.6
|
||
|
|
201911 is 2019.11
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A `#100 /mod` will suffice to split these if needed.
