File Modification & Access Times
Hi Guys,

Anyone got a neat way of accessing the file modification and last-access times from the (korn) shell?

Cheers

Steve

don't think so.
in 'c' and¦or 'perl' you can use one of the 'stat()' family functions.

ls -l gives the modification time,
ls -ul gives the last access time.
The times are given with accuracy to the minute, better accuracy (seconds of the era) gives the stat function in C, but you must write a C program.
