Add a version number to the title of a LaTeX document

Question

The title section of my LaTeX documents usually look like

\\title{Title}
\\author{Me}
%\\date{}      %// Today\'s date will appear when this is commented out.

\         


        

Answer 1

The easiest way to do exactly what I wanted to do was to simply use:

\title{Title}
\author{Me}
\date{\today\\v1.2}

\begin{document}
\maketitle
