For Intel C++ on Windows what command line option prints the version number of the compiler ?

For Intel C++ on Linux what command line option prints the version number of the compiler ?

-V (works on both Linux and Windows).

On Windows it does not show up as a command line option when I try 'icl /help'. Perhaps it should.

>>...On Windows it does not show up as a command line option when I try 'icl /help'. Perhaps it should. It is not clear why option -V is not displayed when icl /help is executed. I would consider that as undocumented feature of the Intel C++ compiler. Version and build information of the compiler are displayed when icl /help or icl are executed. ...
