Hi Joris, I don't remember why the version is not always printed. I see no problem to do that. OTOH: What's the problem with the additional execution of java -jar mkgmap.jar --version?

I know it is possible to use the –version option but this means an extra execution of mkgmap. There is already a default output like this: Time started: Thu Apr 23 07:56:43 CEST 2020 Found one style in ..\..\Dropbox\Garmin\Build\Style – Jbm finished check-styles Number of MapFailedExceptions: 0 Number of ExitExceptions: 0 Time finished: Thu Apr 23 07:57:17 CEST 2020 Total time taken: 33 seconds Could the mkgmap version number be part of this metadata? Kind regards, Joris
