[Gnumed-devel] What GNUmed client version are you (am I) running?

[James Busser]

I can expect this question when people are looking for help, or to  
explain differences in what they are seeing.

Under debian, Synaptic Package Manager provides a nice and easy way  
to search and display this. However, if the client itself can easily  
know this (for example can it somehow "read" this from somewhere in  
its local code base) can I suggest the client be able to display this  
information under Help menu > About GNUmed > (somewhere in this  
screen.. there is space below "Free eMedicine" and above "Version  
0.1..."

This would then provide a consistent place which is not OS or  
distribution-tool dependent.
