Re: Format of LastChangedRevision

I want to display the revision number directly in an about-dialog.
I hoped that there is a format-Parameter so that I could easily include
it in the .res-file (C++).
As it doesn't seem to be, a workaround would be using a string-object
and filter all the not wanted parts of the substitution.
