I have an example code here. Though I need to create a code that needs to loop/terminate as soon as the creation_date is created the cutoff_date (less than 31days is terminated.)
Code I am trying to explain:
Cutoff_date = Todays_date - 31
For each file
If creation_date < cutoff_date
delete file
End If statement
End For each loop
Example code:
#!/sbin/sh
touch -t `date +"%m%d%H%M.%S"` timefile
sleep 5 #sleep 5 seconds
touch timefile2
echo `find ./ -type f -newer timefile`
With the example code..instead of -newer, I want to replace it with
-lesser (or some sort of
less command here). Hopefully someone can help me out! :o)
