     13If you need to refer just one part of the version, you can similarly use:
    1414{{{

    18 This example is from [browser:trunk/dports/lang/php5 php5].
     16set minor               [lindex [split ${version} .] 1]
     17set patch               [lindex [split ${version} .] 2]
     18}}}
     19These split the version string into an array and return the desired element.
     20These examples are based on [browser:trunk/dports/lang/php5 php5].
