DESCRIPTION
The aegis -VERSion command is used to give version information and conditions of use.

There are a number of possible info-names, as follow (abbreviations as for command line options):

Copyright
    The copyright notice for the aegis program. Version information will also be printed. This is the default.

Redistribution
    Print the conditions of use and redistribution.

Warranty
    Print the limited warranty.

OPTIONS
The following options are understood:

-Help
    This option may be used to obtain more information about how to use the aegis program.

All options may be abbreviated; the abbreviation is documented as the upper case letters, all lower case letters and underscores (_) are optional. You must use consecutive sequences of optional letters.

All options are case insensitive, you may type them in upper case or lower case or a combination of both, case is not important.

For example: the arguments "-project, "-PROJ" and "-p" are all interpreted to mean the -Project option. The argument "-prj" will not be understood, because consecutive optional characters were not supplied.

Options and other command line arguments may be mixed arbitrarily on the command line, after the function selectors.

The GNU long option names are understood. Since all option names for aegis are long, this means ignoring the extra leading '-'. The "--option=value" convention is also understood.

csh%	alias aev 'aegis -vers \!*'
