Hi, I think this may not be the right place (...) Now that you've said it, I think you're right. Here you go. You might also get good answers asking in comp.unix.shell. --shmem _($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.

This isn't a perl question, but your issue is easily fixed. Change your find to `find "$dir" -type -f -newermc /tmp/timestamp` [download] the 'mc' at the end of newer means that you are looking for the last 'M'odified time compared to the 'C'reation date/time of the file you give it. -- I used to drive a Heisenbergmobile, but every time I looked at the speedometer, I got lost.
