modchk -- compare modification dates on pairs of files (EXTERNAL)
|
|
|
|
syntax: modchk <pathname1> <pathname2> [-q] [-o] [-n] [-s]
|
|
|
|
ex: modchk thisfile thatfile
|
|
modchk /disk/= /backup/= -o -n
|
|
modchk =.s = -n
|
|
|
|
Checks the last-modification dates on a pair of files. Wildcards
|
|
are allowed. If none of -o (older), -n (newer), or -s (same) is
|
|
given, a message of the form
|
|
|
|
<pathname1> <relation> <pathname2>
|
|
|
|
is displayed. Relation is "<" (older), "=" (same), or ">"
|
|
(newer). If one or more of -o, -n, or -s appears, pathname1 is
|
|
displayed only if the files satisfy one of the specified
|
|
conditions.
|
|
|
|
The second example above displays the names of files on /disk
|
|
which are older OR newer than the files with the same names on
|
|
/backup. The third example above displays the names of ".s"
|
|
files that have been modified since their corresponding files
|
|
without the ".s" suffix. This is useful for insuring that you
|
|
have not changed an assembly language source file without
|
|
recompiling it.
|
|
|
|
If -q (quiet) is given, no complaint is displayed if the second
|
|
file doesn't exist.
