what - extract SCCS version information from a file
what filename...

char sccsid[] = "@(#)identification information";
and program.c is compiled to yield program.o and a.out, the command:
$ what program.c program.o a.out
produces:
The following option is accepted:
The following exit values are returned:
get(1), help(1)
Use the SCCS help command for explanations (see help(1)).
There is a remote possibility that a spurious occurrence of the `@(#)' pattern could be found by what.
