# showversion

## Description

`showversion` is a tool for displaying the TWL-DSK version and build mode being linked by the ROM file.

## Using the Tool

### Start Command

    % showversion ROMFILE

The TWL version information and build mode information defined in the `crt0.o` region of ARM9 resident module inside the ROM file given by `ROMFILE` is read and output.

Version information can be read for ROM files that link the TWK-SDK 2.0FC or later libraries, and the build mode can be read for ROM files that link the TWL-SDK 5.1 PR or later libraries.
Information cannot be read for ROM files that link to an SDK earlier than this or for ROM files for which `crt0.o` has been created independently and for which no version information exists.
