	I do something similar in some of my projects, except it looks like 
this:

#!/bin/sh

# Start with the latest patch
base=`tla logs -f | tail -1`

# Find out how many changes there are that are not build number changes
changes=""
changen=`tla changes | egrep -v "^\*|etc/build.number" | wc -l`

# Figure out if we have uncommitted changes
if [ $changen -gt 0 ]
then
        changes=" (plus uncommited changes)"
fi
echo "$base$changes"



        So, for a java project using ant, for example, I can do this:

    <exec executable="./etc/tree-version" 
outputproperty="tree.version"/>

	Then I just get all that stuff into the output which allows for things 
such as this:

dustinti:~/prog/spyjar 508% java -jar spy.jar
spy.jar build 454 on Sun May 23 20:57:00 PDT 2004
Build platform:  java 1.4.2_03 from Apple Computer, Inc. on Mac OS X

(add -c to see the recent changelog)

        (-c does an entire changelog for the branch)
