  m6_Version():

  Purpose:  Reports the Mach SIx version number and sub-version information.

   Syntax:  m6_Version( [<nType>] )

    where:  <nType> = an optional numeric value from 0 to 3 indicating
                      the type of version information desired.

  Returns:  One of four values, depending on value of nType:

        0 -> Primary version number as a string (i.e., "1.1b")
     *  1 -> Date stamp of release as a DATE type (i.e., 03/25/93)
        2 -> Time stamp of release as a string (i.e., "12:00a")
        3 -> Verbose string containing the following information:
             PRODUCT NAME, DIALECT, VERSION NUMBER, DATE STAMP, TIME STAMP
             (i.e., "Mach SIx, CDX/IDX, v1.1b, 03/25/93, 12:00a")

  NOTE: Keep in mind that m6_Version(1) returns a date value (type "D"),
        while all other parameters return a character string (type "C").
        If you intend to use the return value of m6_Version(1) as a string,
        you'll need to convert it using Clipper's DTOC() or DTOS() function.
