Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Add column that shows how old a file is Post 302372706 by cdunavent on Wednesday 18th of November 2009 02:22:25 PM

This may be something I can use. However, I'm not sure how to tie in the uniline code with the for loop. Is this the syntax?

Code:
for FILENAME in /tmp
do
let AGE=($(date %s)-$(date -r $FILENAME %s))/86400
done
