Display liveusb-creator version in GUI #48

Open garretraziel opened 8 years ago

To make bug reporting easier for normal user, please add version number somewhere in GUI. Although program supports --version argument, I guess that most users will not be aware of how to run program with arguments.

Also, the --version argument does produce invalid numbers (at least not related to those available in Fedora).

I think the version doesn't really need to be displayed in GUI, if you don't want. On Linux, it's easy to use rpm or gnome-software to see a program number. But on Windows, it's not. So at least a version.txt file inside the directory would help users to learn the program version and in return your bug reports would be more helpful, when reported by windows users.
