I am still niggling away at trying to get version information using command line options. I just cannot get anything using '-version' '-v' '-V' 'V' '-version,' 'VERSION' or any other combination so far. I can get Inkscape to start or simply to return to the command line but nothing else. I am using Win 2000. Has anyone succeeded using Win2000 or XP (Josh has not). And bulia, do you get it to work with win98? If so what specific command are you using?

bulia, I love the succinctness of the messages but I'm finding them less than helpful. When you talk of command line are you in the operating system
or is
there a command line set-up in Inkscape itself? In the former I can get
down
to my Inkscape folder and when I run "inkscape --version" it does not recognise this as a command. I am not very experienced with command line stuff, but willing to learn.
On my Windows 98, it's called "MS-DOS window" in the Start menu. Run it and use DOS commands to navigate to a dir and/or run a command. I have no idea if this is different on XP; others please provide more XP-specific info.
