Display MathCAT version in the NVDA MathCAT preferences dialog #105
Description
An NVDA user may want to know which version of MathCAT they are using. We can add this information to the preferences dialog thus:
Version 0.7.2
Three ways we could do this (at least)!
- Add a static label below the logo. The user can navigate to it using the object navigation.
- Add a read only edit box below the logo and place this in the tab order.
- Add the version to the dialog title.
Is the version string OK? Are there any preferences for the technique? In my development build we have a static label.

I think '1' is best. Putting it in the title seems like info most people won't care about. I don't know why it should be a read only textbox. But I'm not a screenreader user, so I defer to others.
P.S.: I like the look of the logo!

I could take a look at this as a first issue, since I've already been poking this part of the addon while trying to confirm if I successfully installed it or not. (Apparently, I hadn't. Whoops.)
