there is only one mtime per file. The number nine refers to the element of the array that is returned from the Perl stat function. ls -l and the perl stat function will report the same thing but you have to do the run it through the localtime function.
ie mtime_data[8]

If I use the find command to find files older than n days I have to enter
find . -mtime +(n-1). I tried this on a Solaris 9 system and also Linux. Is this something that all Unix veterans know about (I'm new to Unix)? If so, maybe my man pages need to be updated (how to do this?). :confused: (4 Replies)

time::localtime
Time::localtime(3pm) Perl Programmers Reference Guide Time::localtime(3pm)
NAME
Time::localtime - by-name interface to Perl's built-in localtime() function
SYNOPSIS
use Time::localtime;
printf "Year is %d
", localtime->year() + 1900;
$now = ctime();
use Time::localtime;
use File::stat;
$date_string = ctime(stat($file)->mtime);
DESCRIPTION
This module's default exports override the core localtime() function, replacing it with a version that returns "Time::tm" objects. This
object has methods that return the similarly named structure field name from the C's tm structure from time.h; namely sec, min, hour, mday,
mon, year, wday, yday, and isdst.
You may also import all the structure fields directly into your namespace as regular variables using the :FIELDS import tag. (Note that
this still overrides your core functions.) Access these fields as variables named with a preceding "tm_" in front their method names.
Thus, "$tm_obj->mday()" corresponds to $tm_mday if you import the fields.
The ctime() function provides a way of getting at the scalar sense of the original CORE::localtime() function.
To access this functionality without the core overrides, pass the "use" an empty import list, and then access function functions with their
full qualified names. On the other hand, the built-ins are still available via the "CORE::" pseudo-package.
NOTE
While this class is currently implemented using the Class::Struct module to build a struct-like class, you shouldn't rely upon this.
