Question scan direcotries

Hi

I am new to this forum, and glad to be a part of it here after. I have an intersting issue for which I need suggestions of you great minds.

I am in process a building a shell script which should scan a directory for a specified amount of time and prepare a list of all the files that were created in that time.

lets say at the fist scan of 100 sec, there were three files created in $HOME/mydir/

it should prepare a file with this list: some thing like below.
test1.dat
test2.dat
test3.dat

At the second run of the script, lets say 5 more files are created then it should update the previous file list with these latest 5 files (excluding the last three): some thing like below.
test4.dat
test5.dat
test6.dat
test7.dat
test8.dat

File naming conventions can be any thing, but the extension of all the files would be the same.

Any Ideas let me know: email id removed

Thanks
Nag

ATF-SH(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						 ATF-SH(1)

NAME
atf-sh [-s shell] -- interpreter for shell-based test programs SYNOPSIS
atf-sh script DESCRIPTION
atf-sh is an interpreter that runs the test program given in script after loading the atf-sh(3) library. atf-sh is not a real interpreter though: it is just a wrapper around the system-wide shell defined by ATF_SHELL. atf-sh executes the inter- preter, loads the atf-sh(3) library and then runs the script. You must consider atf-sh to be a POSIX shell by default and thus should not use any non-standard extensions. The following options are available: -s shell Specifies the shell to use instead of the value provided by ATF_SHELL. ENVIRONMENT
ATF_LIBEXECDIR Overrides the builtin directory where atf-sh is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes. ATF_PKGDATADIR Overrides the builtin directory where libatf-sh.subr is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes. ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. Scripts must not rely on this variable being set to select a specific interpreter. EXAMPLES
Scripts using atf-sh(3) should start with: #! /usr/bin/env atf-sh Alternatively, if you want to explicitly choose a shell interpreter, you cannot rely on env(1) to find atf-sh. Instead, you have to hardcode the path to atf-sh in the script and then use the -s option afterwards as a single parameter: #! /path/to/bin/atf-sh -s/bin/bash ENVIRONMENT
ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. SEE ALSO
