70     2.3 Controlling SCRAM Versions
71     </H1>
72     The version of <SMALL>SCRAM</SMALL>&nbsp;used can be easily changed by using <SMALL>SCRAM</SMALL>&nbsp;
73     itself. The current version will be displayed by typing the command
74    
75     <P>
76     <TT>scram version</TT>
77    
78     <P>
79     which will return a string with a format like <TT>V0_XX_X</TT>,
80     where the <TT>X</TT>'s are digits representing the major and minor
81     release numbers. To switch to a different version, say V0_19_4, the
82     command would be
83    
84     <P>
85     <TT>scram version V0_19_4</TT>.
86    
87     <P>
88     If the specified version already exists in the central
89     installation directory, it will be used. Otherwise, <SMALL>SCRAM</SMALL>&nbsp;will
90     attempt to download the requested version from the CVS repository.
91    
92     <P>
93     Running the <TT>install_scram</TT> script of a specific version
94     will make that version the default. This version can be overridden by
95     setting an environment variable <TT>SCRAM_HOME</TT> to point to the
96     top-level directory of the required version:
97    
98     <P>
99     e.g. <TT>export SCRAM_HOME=/home/sashby/SCRAM/V0_19_4</TT>
100    
101     <P>
102     will force <SMALL>SCRAM</SMALL>&nbsp;to use version V0_19_4 throughout the current
103     session.
104    
105     <P>
106     <SMALL>SCRAM</SMALL>&nbsp;can be made to automatically select the correct version to
107     use for a given project area, overridding any other version selection
108     mechanism. To turn this feature on, simply create the file
109     <TT>scram_version</TT> in your project development/release
110     <A NAME="1822"></A>
111     configuration directory. The file should contain the required <SMALL>SCRAM</SMALL>&nbsp;
112     version tag. Any <SMALL>SCRAM</SMALL>&nbsp;command issued in that area is then directed
113     to the correct version if it is installed. If the required version is
114     not installed then a warning is issued and execution of the command
115     continues using the current (default) version.
