int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  const char *my_version = "1.0";
  HM_ping_translator(argc, argv,my_version,__TIME__,__DATE__);
  /* rest of code */ 
}

When "mytrans -version" [i.e., abaqus.exe -version] is entered at the command prompt, theHyperMesh version and the translator version with the time and date of build is displayed.

Errors

None.
