Then you are in the lucky position to tell stat how to output the date using your desired timefmt.
Accepted. Good point. Still my intention was to give ideas to the requestor on how to achieve the result so he/she can dream up a best fit solution.
Agreed. Apple's stat(1) man page's description of how to do this is rather opaque and doesn't include any examples for this issue. But the command:
Code:
stat -t "%Y%m%d" -f "%Sm%n" file
does give output in the format needed for this script (YYYYMMDD) on OS X (and would greatly simplify the script I provided).
Although this site's OpenSolaris 2009.06 Man Page Set includes a stat(1) man page, I can't find a stat(1) man page for Solaris 10 or 11 and I don't remember there being a stat utility on the Solaris systems I used to use.
