Wouldn't it be better if version.h were generated by configure rather than make? And if you used the 3-letter month name, there'd be room for RC1 etc.
If it were generated by configure, it would most certainly be out of date most of the time (but perhaps you re-run configure more than I do ;-).
I see your point. Still, your scheme has a couple of defects: - if anything is changed, hugs.c and server.c get recompiled - if only those two are changed, the version number is unaffected How about a little version.c with nothing in it but a getVersion() function, and making that depend on everything else?
