DESCRIPTION
reads the inode list and directories of each special file, assuming it to be a VxFS file system, and prints inode data for files that match
the selection criteria. Output consists of the pathname for each saved inode, plus any other file information requested using the print
options below. Output fields are positional. The output is produced in inode order; fields are separated by tabs. The default line pro-
duced by is:
pathname inumber
The pathname is preceded by a dot unless you specify the generic option. The maximum information displays is:
pathname inumber size owner
The num parameter in the options descriptions is a decimal number, where means more than num days, means less than num days, and num means
exactly num days. A day is defined as a 24-hour period.
prints summary information to standard error output in addition to the report sent to standard output.
Options
recognizes the following options:
Select a file if the inode has been accessed in
num days.

num days.

Generate names for any inodes specified in the
inode-list.
Do not display the inode number after each pathname.
Generate a list of all pathnames for files with more than one link.
Select a file associated with the inode if it has been modified in
num days.
Select a file associated with an inode
if it has been modified more recently than the specified file.
