list files with modifications <15 minutes
Good Afternoon Guys:

we can use ls -l to find out the files and their modification time. however, how to list the files say which are modified 15 minutes before. we have find command which uses -mtime and -atime for modification and access timing. However, if we just be restricted to the current directory only, how to proceed.

thanks.

This question has been asked before. Infact, its there in the FAQs. Check this page. Once there, check out the links under find in conjuction with touch.

Combine these with the very first: How to stop find from descending into subdirectories? and you are on your way.
