Is this available in 4.1.2 or is there a patch, or should I get the
latest snapshot?

Thanks,
Adam

Don't know about "easy", but the following does work (even if it is
ugly):

strings bb | grep "^[1-9]\."

Will work for all versions of hobbit up to and including 9 :-)
I don't think this is consistant on all platforms.
Probably not. I've added a "--version" option for the "bb" and "bbcmd"
commands now - both of these are included in the client installation.
So in the future, you can run "bbcmd --version" and it will say

henrik at osiris:~/hobbit$ ./common/bbcmd --version
Hobbit version 4.1.2
