Quote:
"-atime/-ctime/-mtime" [+|-]n Each of those specifies selection of the files based on
three Unix timestamps: the last time a files's "access time", "file status" and "modification time".
n is
time interval -- an integer with optional sign. It is measured in 24-hour periods (days) or minutes (GNU find only) counted from the current moment.
- n: If the integer n does not have sign this means exactly n 24-hour periods (days) ago, 0 means today.
- +n: if it has plus sing, then it means "more then n 24-hour periods (days) ago", or older then n,
- -n: if it has the minus sign, then it means less than n 24-hour periods (days) ago (-n), or younger then n. It's evident that -1, and 0 are the same and both means "today".
Note: If you use parameters with find command in scripts be careful when
-mtime parameter is equal zero. Some (earlier) versions of GNU find incorrectly interpret the following expression
find -mtime +0 -mtime -1 which should be equivalent to find -mtime -1 but does not produce any files

mdbfontencoding
mdbFontEncoding(5) The m17n Library mdbFontEncoding(5)
NAME
mdbFontEncoding - Font Encoding
DESCRIPTION
The m17n library loads information about the encoding of each font form the m17n database by the tags <font, encoding>. The data is loaded
as a plist of this format.
FONT-ENCODING ::= PER-FONT *
PER-FONT ::= '(' FONT-SPEC ENCODING [ REPERTORY ] ')'
FONT-SPEC ::=
'(' [ FOUNDRY FAMILY
[ WEIGHT [ STYLE [ STRETCH [ ADSTYLE ]]]]]
REGISTRY ')'
ENCODING ::= SYMBOL
FONT-SPEC is to specify properties of a font. FOUNDRY to REGISTRY are symbols corresponding to Mfoundry to Mregistry property of a font.
See m17nFont for the meaning of each property.
For instance, this FONT-SPEC:
(nil alice0 lao iso8859-1)
should be applied to all fonts whose family name is 'alice0 lao', and registry is 'iso8859-1'.
ENCODING is a symbol representing a charset. A font matching FONT-SPEC supports all characters of the charset, and a character code is
mapped to the corresponding glyph code of the font by this charset.
REPERTORY is a symbol representing a charset or 'nil'. Omitting it is the same as specifying ENCODING as REPERTORY. If it is not 'nil', the
charset specifies the repertory of the font, i.e, which character it supports. Otherwise, whether a specific character is supported by the
font or not is asked to each font driver.
For so called Unicode fonts (registry is 'iso10646-1'), it is recommended to specify 'nil' as REPERTORY because such fonts usually supports
only a subset of Unicode characters.
