✨ wml::mod::version β€” the vibe-check page πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to wml::mod::version from the EN Tools manual, section 3 πŸŽ€. this little cutie's whole job? checking WML version numbers. that's it. that's the gig. and it does it flawlessly.


🌸 NAME 🌸

wml::mod::version β€” checks WML version number πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

#use wml::mod::version

<require 1.7.1 />

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so here's the tea β˜• β€” WML is literally always evolving, right? new features keep dropping, and some input files are not about to run on some dusty old version. they need the new stuff.

that's where this include file comes in, no cap. it hands you the <require> tag, and that tag checks whether the WML program you're running is new enough to actually process your input file. it's giving gatekeeping, but in a helpful way 🫢.


✨ ATTRIBUTES ✨

the <require> tag takes exactly one argument: the WML version number needed to process the file where this tag shows up. simple. iconic.

that number is a dot separated list of 3 numbers, and reading left to right it's:

  1. version
  2. revision
  3. patchlevel
⚠️ heads up: the comparison between numbers is numerical, so 1.7.50 > 1.7.6 fr fr. do not let the string-vibes fool you πŸ’€
