how about for a file?

it worked well....but i just had a thought. Is it possible to get that level of granularity with files? I know you can get the second a file was created with this:

command line
---------------
perl -e '@d=localtime ((stat(shift))[9]); printf "%02d-%02d-%04d %02d:%02d:%02d\n", $d[3],$d[4]+1,$d[5]+1900,$d[2],$d[1],$d[0]' /tmp/dummyfile.txt

output
-------
21-03-2007 13:28:01

Is it possible to get more granular? something like this?
