💅 DBVERSION (nged) 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the BRL-CAD User Commands corner of the manual — this one's a tiny little icon and honestly kind of a comfort read 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

dbversion — prints the version of the currently open BRL-CAD database. yes, that's the whole job. she's simple, she's effective, she ate 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

dbversion

no flags, no arguments, no drama. literally just type it 😌

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's the tea ☕ — dbversion prints the integer database format version for the .g file you currently have open. that's the number that tells you which format generation your database is living in, and it's giving main character energy for a single integer ngl.

one thing though, bestie — an open database is required. no .g file open? no version. it's not gonna guess for you 🙈

also!! MGED happily accepts the alternate command name version for this exact same database query. two names, one vibe, iykyk ✨

🎀 EXAMPLES 🎀

Example 1. Report the current database format version.

mged> dbversion

Prints the version number of the open database, such as 5. that's it. that's the whole output. iconic behavior honestly 👑
