I know the date command when formatted with give you the time.
Example:
phdb102 [ogd] >date +%H:%M
12:02
This is the using variables in a shell script:
#!/usr/bin/ksh
the_hour=`date +"%H"`
the_min=`date +"%M"`
calc_time=`expr $the_hour - 2`
echo "The current time is $the_hour:$the_min"
echo "This is the calculated time $calc_time:$the_min"
The result:
phdb102 [ogd] >the_time.sh
The current time is 12:04
This is the calculated time 10:04
Knowing this I am not sure how to incorporate this into the find command. I will experiment and let you know what I come up with.
