DESCRIPTION
       Tcl_GetVersion should be used to query the version number  of  the  Tcl
       library at runtime.  This is useful when using a dynamically loaded Tcl
       library or when writing a stubs-aware extension.	 For instance, if  you
       write  an  extension  that  is linked against the Tcl stubs library, it
       could be loaded into a program linked to an older version of  Tcl  than
       you  expected.  Use Tcl_GetVersion to verify that fact, and possibly to
       change the behavior of your extension.

       Tcl_GetVersion accepts NULL for any of the arguments. For  instance  if
       you  do	not  care about the patchLevel of the library, pass a NULL for
       the patchLevel argument.

KEYWORDS
