Workbench 3.1, Icon Information version patch

amiwolf · 10 November 2019, 00:21

Please help in finding a Workbench patch that reads the full version string of a file which it then adds to the Icon Information Window, preferably between Name and Last changed. eg:

Name: Say (Tool)

Version: say 38.5 (27/01/92)

Last changed: 4/01/92 04:02PM

Size: etc,etc.

Any assistance warmly welcomed. Thank you.

There are some replacements for the icon information.
Sadly aminet is down atm. But once it is back search for Swazinfo or wbinfo.
WBinfo does include the version, for swazinfo i can't remember.

I remember Swazinfo from BetterWB days and it didn't display version as I recall. WBinfo doesn't display the full version string but it's better than nothing, I suppose. Thanks, again.

Is Scalos_Informa loaded with loadmodule?
