What operating system (including release number) are you using?
What shell (including version number) are you using?
Do you have a ksh (version 93u+ or later) that I can use instead of whatever shell you're using to provide an example?
Please help me to convert to the user file format to date format string as below.
The following script is a quick and dirty demonstration producing results similar to what your script seemed to be trying to do. It takes the number of days to examine and the file pattern as command line arguments and prints the date in %Y-%m-%d format for dates that had no file matching the given pattern.

The missing dates are printed to standard output from this script since the redirection to missingfiles.txt is commented out.

Hi,
I'm writing a post-upgrade script and I want to find which files don't have read and execute to everyone.
I can run a find . ! -perm, but then I have to use a list of the possible permissions (777,775, 755 etc). Is there a more elegant solution?
