<h1>version</h1>

This is a commandline tool to *update version numbers* across source code files.

It understands multiple syntax contexts to constrain write operations. And the command arguments can be mixed naturally.

<h4>documentations</h4>

Just running the script displays a simple help (same as atop the code).

But there is also a [manpage|manpage version(1)].

<h4>why?</h4>

It's useful for preparing manual packaging processes, keeping version numbers in sync from source code to documentation and build scripts.

I've been using a dozen variants of this on multiple projects, but each patched to a specific language or too generic. This is a consolidation.

Surely there must be other tools like that, but they're obviously not easy to google.
