What are the command lines I'd use (to > include "." files and NOT recursively list within a/the directory)? Include . files - ls -a Don't recurse - DON'T include -R Inode change time - ls -lc Last modified - ls -l Last accessed - ls -lu Note that there is no "creation time" - it's actually just the inode change time. So it will change when you make a new link to the file, for example, or when you set any of the file's times other than last modified, with `touch'. -- Josh > > PS - PLEASE CC: ME IN YOUR REPLY > > -- > Peter Leftwich > President & Founder, Video2Video Services > Box 13692, La Jolla, CA, 92039 USA > http://Www.Video2Video.Com > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
