I'd like to know which version of the DevKit installed the current
development files on my Windows system. How can I check this?

You will need to check the package you downloaded, there is no version
information at this time as is not a installer.

However, if you call "devkitvars" from the console, you can do: "gcc
--version" to get the version information from GCC and might give you
a hint of which package you downloaded.

On a sidenote: If you have Ruby 1.8.6, you can only use DevKit 3.4.5
(under archives)

For Ruby 1.8.7, 1.9.2 and 1.9.3 you need DevKit 4.5.2 or newer.

PS: Sorry took so long to notice your message, Google Groups didn't
email us (admins) about it.
