Usually the version can be displayed if you use a -v or --version or some combination in that manner.

Check the man pages. If are not present, try

strings `which make` | grep -i version

Hi,


Thanks for the help.. It worked fine, but i'm unable to grep the version name as u have mentioned. But i got the linker version. Is linker version and the utility version the same?.


thanks,

abey

Sometimes:
what `which make`
will work. It looks for sccs/rcs comments in the binary. HP will sometimes ask you to do that to be sure that you are using a version with the most recent patches.
