However, see my other script to actually find the "closest version". It's pretty easy. In fact, even if you don't know which file it is, we could easily first have a separate "try to guess filename" (based on the same kind of heurstics) and then dig deeper on that filename. So I think there are better ways to get the same effect without embedding any information.
