@peter for a next iteration of the software, maybe make a little cron that runs once a day to compare version installed with latest version on server. If newer then add something on screen
Maybe update in red just before settings ???

This functionality actually already exists! The version numbers are checked at midnight, and if a new release is available, the popup below appears over the date and time. Perhaps you are just too quick to update to see the popup . Also, if you start an outdated version of the console, the popup appears as soon as the console starts.

@peter

The update notification will check if a new version of the code is available once a day at midnight, and when the console is first run. The popup can be easily dismissed using the exit button in the top right, but will reappear the following midnight.

@eric

And as ultimate, a setting for an auto update so you don’t even have to use terminal …
This implies that the testing should be done before it is declared stable by a small group (hence many terminals going wacko the same day )

Definitely the end goal! Will certainly need some testing though as you say.
