CLI Getting Started Version

`ed version`

Prints the CLI version, and with --json whether Edith is running.

ed version [--json]

Options

Name	Type / values	Default	What it does
`--json`	flag	off	Emit JSON on stdout instead of the bare version string

--json shape:

{
  "appRunning": true,
  "version": "1.0.0"
}

Examples

ed version
ed version --json
ed --version

appRunning is about the menu bar helper, bundle id com.pulkit.edith.statusbar, not the main window, because the helper is what answers the commands that need the app. This is the polite way to find out: it reports the state and exits 0 either way, where a command that actually needs the app exits 4.

ed --version prints the same string through the argument parser. The version is declared on the root command, so it is inherited: ed schema --version and ed machines ls --version also print 1.0.0 and exit 0.
