[Rd] linux manpage for `Rscript` ought to indicate date/version as does that of `R`
Hello R developers, I have noticed that the footer for the R's manpage nicely reports the version and date: R 4.0.0 September 2020 R(1) Whereas that of Rscript does not include version, and is incorrect as per date: R scripting April 2007 Rscript(1) It could profitably read: Rscript 4.0.0 September 2020 Rscript(1) Thoughts?

You should check the corresponding pages in the current version and the developer versio. It rather unlikely that there will any attempt to correct an out of date version. ? David.
