12.11: The `expecting' Command

expecting version .n.
Show a list of incompatibilites since the named version. This protects you from being clobbered by changes made to Gri, since you will be assured of being warned of these changes. For example, if you are doing a lot of work with version 2.1.0, but want to move up to a higher version, you would include the line `expecting version 2.0100' in all your commandfiles. Once you are sure that your commandfile will not be affected by the newer version, you should change the version that is expected. Note: As of October 1996, Gri version numbers have been in the form `a.b.c'. Numerical version numbers are created by the formula `a + b/100 + c/10000'. For example, version `2.1.0' has a numerical value of `2.0100'.
