What Operating System and version are you running?
What Shell are you using?
Do you have a High Level Programming Language available?
Do you have use of "perl", "awk" or other quick programming tools?
Further to Jim Mcnamara, what is the "some command" ? Is it something which can be changed to produce a date in a more usable format - preferably including the year too? Is it written in a language which could be used to convert the date? Is the date output from "some command" created on that very day (in which case the process could perhaps output a timestamp file)?
If the date format cannot be changed what is the precise format for a single digit day (leading zero?, month two spaces day?, month space day?).
To answer one of you questions in mainstream "find" the effect of "-older" is achieved by negating "-newer". If your date actually comes from "ls" command we could of course refer to the file itself not a directory listing of the file.
Example of one way to convert character month to numeric month:
This script is an example which also tests itself for every possible month name. There are other more clever Shell techniques available which are less portable.
