I want to be able to identify which ZEO is sitting in a Zope install. 
With Zope Products, I'd do:

cat version.txt

With ZEO, there is no such thing.

However, VERSION.TXT is a Zope idiot^hm, so if __init__.py is the right place, and I can
still find what I'm after using cat (ie: no massive ZPL missive at the top, and no 200
lines of code in the file), then that'd work too.

Lemme know what I need to do...

cheers,

Chris
