ls -l all files created between two times
solaris 8 and solaris 10
c shell

I have a /local/tmp/ directory that is cleared out every day and files are created in it all day long from 0000 - 2359 (24 hour clock) A new file is created in this directory every couple of minutes.

I want a script "rrtime" that takes two arguments hhmm1 and hhmm2 and lists all files in /local/tmp/ that were created between hhmm1 and hhmm2... the times are given in 24hour format, for example 1500 - 1600
Sounds easy enough? If somebody could give me an example script, even one that is SIMILAR to what I need here....that would be awesome!
thank you so much!

example usage: rrtime 1500 1600
(this would list all files in /local/tmp/ created between 15:00 and 16:00)

strclean

strclean(8)						      System Manager's Manual						       strclean(8)

NAME

       strclean - Removes outdated STREAMS error log files

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/strclean [-d logdir] [-a age]

FLAGS

       Specifies  a  maximum  age  in  days for the STREAMS error log files if this not the default age of 3.  The value of age must be an integer
       greater than or less than 3.  Specifies a directory for the location of the STREAMS error log files to  be  removed  if	this  is  not  the
       default directory /var/adm/streams.

DESCRIPTION

       The  strclean  command cleans the STREAMS error logger directory of log files (error.mm-dd) that contain error messages sent by the STREAMS
       log driver (strlog).  If no other directory is specified (the logdir argument), the command removes error log files in the /var/adm/streams
       directory.  If no other age is specified (the age argument), the command removes error log files that have not been modified in 3 days.

       The strclean command is executed by the cron daemon on a periodic basis.

EXAMPLES

       To remove the day-old error log files from a directory called /tmp/streams, enter: strclean -d /tmp/streams -a 1

FILES

       One or more error log file or files on which strclean operates.	The mm.dd in the filename indicates the month and day of the messages con-
       tained in the file.

RELATED INFORMATION

       Commands: strerr(8), cron(8).

       Interfaces: strlog(7).  delim off
