It seems the access times are pretty useless here, as they're changed when stat or ls are called. stat file, ls file --time=access -l report the current time as the access time. This is incorrect, right? As a reference, on Linux stat and ls don't bump the access time. Regards, Adrian. -- Czy ty orzeł, czy ty kawka? -wkrótce zdłabi kaszel, czkawka. Śmierć szyję zaszyje.
