title: How to get the AssemblyVersion of a .Net file in Linux
body: <p>Is there any way to obtain the AssemblyVersion of a .Net executable in Linux without using mono?  What I am trying to have is a script or command that will let me obtain the AssemblyVersion on Linux boxes.  I tried: <pre><code>#strings file.exe | grep AssemblyVersion</code></pre> but it only the string and not the number.  Also checked with:<pre><code>#file file.exe</code></pre> but only got general information.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
